If you are here checking out this course, I imagine that you might be in one of 3 scenarios:
- You’ve heard this term “SEL” and are wondering what the heck people are talking about? You might have some students that you think might benefit from SEL, and you can use all the help you can get!
- You are pretty on-board with SEL, but your administrators aren’t there yet. You could use some help convincing administrators that SEL is important for your students.
- You aren’t sure your administrators will ever be on board, but you’d like to start addressing the social and emotional needs of your students.
If one of these scenarios describes you, you are in the right place!
This course is designed to answer a few fundamental questions about Social Emotional Learning:
- What is it?
- What are some of the big SEL programs and what do they focus on?
- WHY should you include SEL skills in your already packed curriculum?
- How to start
