We need to teach our students how to understand their emotions, become self-aware, and develop more empathy to those around them. More and more schools are adopting social and emotional learning standards, and our district has selected six objectives and standards for social and emotional learning. I have chosen a large selection of literature that helps teachers discuss and engage with students about different topics and concerns for their social and emotional learning. Literature is a great tool to open the doorway for discussion and self-reflection. Several books have been selected to promote conversations about the six social and emotional objectives our district has selected. These books will be used during library times and are also available for teachers to check out and use in their classrooms. With a wide variety of texts, teachers can select the perfect age-appropriate level to use to meet their classroom needs. In addition to literature, several books will be purchased to aid teachers in effective strategies to coach students through different social and emotional needs. These resources will be available to teachers and parents to check out.
