My Project

Social-emotional learning (SEL) is a methodology that helps students of all ages to better comprehend their emotions, to feel those emotions fully, and demonstrate empathy for others. These learned behaviors are then used to help students make positive, responsible decisions; create frameworks to achieve their goals, and build positive relationships with others.

I believe that our younger students would benefit from these SEL tools.

The conversation starters will help students who are nervous at school to start talking more. And I believe that the buddy builders will allow students to make stories and talk about different things they see!

I think that starting our students in kindergarten would benefit them throughout their schooling life. I also think having these in first and second would help transition them from grade to grade.
