Boost Social Emotional Learning in the Classroom
Social emotional learning (SEL) is integral to the success of your students and staff. By creating an environment where stakeholders understand themselves, know how to make responsible decisions as well as show respect and empathy for others, your school community can excel.
With Celebrate You(th): A Social Emotional Learning Curriculum, educators are equipped with a roadmap to apply Emergenetics theory to support skill building in the five CASEL competencies.
Through easy-to-implement activities that can be woven into educators’ existing lesson plans, our supplemental curriculum allows you to amplify the STEP Youth Discovery Program by encouraging students to use their Emergenetics preferences to navigate their classroom environments and beyond.
