Paying Attention
In this video, Mr. Parker, with some help from some birds in his backyard, explains why it’s important to pay attention and sings a song to help kids remember this. Mr. Parker explains why actually paying attention, especially when parents are talking, is really crucial to developing our social-emotional tools. Mr. Parker talks about all of the great ways that kids have been using the videos in their everyday life. He then talks about how we can use our body parts to help kids pay attention. Eyes for watching, ears for listening and we can all become social detectives to read the room.
Lyrics

Perspective
In this video, Mr. Parker talks about paying attention to the feelings of other people in our lives, like our family and friends. Sometimes people have different feelings about the same situation, and that’s okay. Mr. Parker explains how we can all be social detectives to understand how we can all better understand the feelings of others. We should all get in the habit of asking other people around us how they are feeling. He then plays a great song to help us remember to care about the feelings of others.
Lyrics
Looking through other people's eyes you’ll be surprised can lead to better understand. Your actions can affect all the people around you. If I was yelling people might cover their ears and walk away, they would be scared and I could tell by the look on their face. If I show kindness people would smile we’d be connected. And I would know that because I’d be searching for clues like a detective.

Paraphrasing
In this video, Mr. Parker explains why paraphrasing is really important to show other people that we are listening to them and caring about what they think.

It’s important to listen to others and pay attention to their feelings. By this simple little trick, we can let others know we care about them and are listening. He finishes up by singing a great song to help us remember this skill.
Lyrics
I’m going to paraphrase what you were saying to show you that I’m listening repeat back your words but put my own spin on it that way you know I am hearing it I’m showing listening in so many ways I’m going to show caring every single day and if I name you’re feeling I show you that I’m really tuned into you cheer you up when you’re feeling blue

Using the H.E.A.R.S Method
In this video, Mr. Parker explains how the HEARS method or empathy in action can help us practice empathy and practice good listening.
