Oplæsning er en glimrende måde at starte en lektion på eller til at indlede samtaler med elever om emner, der kan være vanskelige at tale om som gruppe. Oplæsning viser eleverne, at disse problemer og følelser er så almindelige, at nogen faktisk har skrevet en bog om dem. De behøver ikke at være bange for at dele, hvordan de har det!
Studerende kan illustrere en venlig handling efter at have læst Be Kind af Pat Zietlow Miller for at hjælpe med social følelsesmæssig læring.
