Social-Emotional Learning
To ensure success, great teachers teach the whole child. Developing the ability to understand and regulate feelings, thoughts, and behaviors will help youth inside and outside the classroom. Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) has numerous benefits for children and adolescents including improvements in social-emotional skills, academic performance, and prosocial behaviors, as well as reductions in externalizing and internalizing behaviors.
