What is SEL?
|
Social and Emotional Learning is the process through which children
and adults acquire and effectively apply the knowledge, attitudes, and skills necessary to understand and manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions. Newtown Public Schools aligns its SEL approach with the Collaborative for Academic, Social and Emotional Learning’s Framework for Social and Emotional Learning (www.casel.org) Watch a video from CASEL |
