Social emotional literacy is for everyone!
Adults are tasked with teaching social emotional literacy (SEL), including skills like curiosity, respect, and problem-solving, but too often we fail to acknowledge or tend to our own well-being.
In SEL Muscle Mastery, you will discover six SEL Muscles™ that, when strengthened and flexed with skill, support our own emotional balance and are key to building resilient and joyful environments where we can effectively teach and kids can sustainably learn. Inside this transformative guidebook, you'll discover:
- A framework for managing student behavior and classroom dynamics, finding personal fulfillment, and supporting the whole child
- Reflection prompts for readers to use to consider what is present in the moment and what is possible in the future
- Links to videos and an open-access curriculum
- Exercises, stories, and examples for teachers, caregivers, and community members
In this beautifully illustrated book, Lori Woodley-Langendorff, a former school counselor and award-winning film producer and educational consultant, presents a powerful new toolkit to enhance your ability to navigate difficult circumstances with greater ease and joy, both in and out of the classroom.
