What is Social Emotional Learning?
Social Emotional Learning encompasses the ways in which we process our emotions. It includes the ways we empathize and develop and maintain healthy relationships. It involves positive expressions of our emotions and healthy methods of communications.
In class we support Social Emotional Learning through daily check ins at the Morning Meeting. We discuss how we are feeling and have a share in order to learn about one another. We also utilize read alouds to explore characters and complex themes which allow for exploration of emotions and relationships between characters.
We take what we learn and apply relationship skills to partner and group work within the classroom always focusing on creating a classroom culture of kindness. Building a strong classroom community gives children a sense of belonging and encourages cooperation. I am looking forward to a wonderful year!
