Spotlight On Social and Emotional Learning: Sets 1 ? 2

Social and emotional learning (SEL) is the way people
understand and manage their emotions, set and achieve goals, and learn the
intricacies of interpersonal relationships. Educators can use SEL principles to
prepare their students for the future. Studies have shown that SEL skills taught
in the classroom result in positive behavior, improved academic performance, and
better decision-making. The interactive eBooks implement a variety of features
to teach children how to navigate situations that may arise in their lives,
including identifying problems, having respect for others, ethical
responsibility, social engagement, and appreciating diversity.
