Social Emotional Learning as the Foundation for All Learning

Social emotional learning is how students learn techniques to process and manage emotions as well as essential social skills. It encompasses everything from goal setting to stress management, and it provides both children and adults with tools they can use to express themselves authentically and appropriately. SEL is critical for building healthy relationships, communicating effectively, and living a meaningful life.

When integrated with an academic curriculum, SEL facilitates engaged classroom participation and retention of concepts. Move This World’s SEL programs teach students and educators a common language and effective exercises that aid in identifying and managing emotions, problem solving, and building relationships.

Imagine a classroom where the teachers are actively in tune with each student’s verbal and non-verbal cues, where children support their peers’ desire to learn, and where tension is removed so that deeper learning can take place. Move This World’s programs can make this a reality in your classroom.
