Spotlight on Social and Emotional Learning: Set 2

Social and emotional learning (SEL) is a dynamic approach to teaching elementary students how to manage their emotions, make good decisions, and form strong relationships with others. The guides in this set will provide educators with an effective platform from which to introduce and explore the concepts at the core of SEL instruction, including social engagement, ethical responsibility, problem identification, problem solving, and more. Elementary schools across the country are implementing SEL programs to help their students develop positive mental health skills, as well as other skills needed to excel in school and in their personal lives. Photographs of elementary-age students in a wide variety of situations help readers make crucial connections between the narratives and their own experiences. Features include: Primary sources that present opportunities for additional learning. Glossaries with pronunciations equip readers with the language they'll need to comprehend and discuss these topics at a more advanced level.
