What is Social Emotional Learning (SEL)?
Social and emotional learning (SEL) is the process through which children and adults acquire and effectively apply the knowledge, attitudes, and skills necessary to understand and manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions
How do I teach it from home?
There are several online curriculum with free components. These include Second Step and Everyday Speech. Encouraging your student to practice mindfulness or breathing techniques using yoga or the Calm app can also build skills in this area.
