Dr. Krista Leh returns to discuss how educators can effectively integrate social emotional learning into their teaching without adding to their workload, emphasizing the importance of recognizing SEL skills already present in their practices.
• Teachers continue to struggle with balancing personal lives and professional obligations while facing constant addition of new initiatives
• SEL is more than just building relationships—it's a set of interpersonal and intrapersonal skills that teachers are often already incorporating
• Research shows students only need one caring, consistent adult to make a difference in their lives
• Middle school leadership programs can effectively build student SEL skills by providing structured opportunities to explore character strengths
• Workshop design should honor participant expertise and create safe spaces for collaboration
• Free resources available at resonanceed.com for teachers looking to enhance their SEL practices
• Integration starts by examining existing practices and identifying the SEL skills already embedded in classroom activities
You don't have to do anything alone. Reach out to colleagues who can help you relate to students better, connect with someone who has different expertise, or ask for support at home so you can be your best self.
