Instructional Ideas

• Consider designing a worksheet where learners identify the various components of their FRAMEs and can submit the worksheets to you individually. Then, take their responses and display them in such a way as to keep names private, but to have the class still see the diversity of the room

Pros

• Offers a useful acronym that can be repeatedly referred to throughout the year when considering empathy, diversity, and point-of-view

Cons

• While identifying the FRAME concept, the resource itself doesn't offer any particular activities or strategies for teaching. See teaching tips for suggested activities
