How do I implement Daily SEL?
To implement daily SEL (Social and Emotional Learning) in your classroom effectively, follow these simple steps:
On the dashboard:
1. Access Daily SEL Module: Begin by logging into your classroom platform and navigating to the Daily SEL module from your homepage. This is where you'll find resources for your daily SEL practice.
2. Engage with Mindful Minute Videos: Each week, you'll discover a new Mindful Minute video focusing on a different SEL concept. These videos serve as touch points for your students' emotional and social development.
You can find these on the Homepage of your dashboard as seen below
3. Utilize Discussion Prompts: Alongside each video, you'll find discussion prompts. These prompts are designed to spark conversations and reflections among you and your students.
4. Daily Routine: Incorporate Daily SEL into your daily routine by following a structured schedule. For instance, on Mondays, introduce the weekly theme and show the video. Then, throughout the week, engage with a new prompt each day, reinforcing the concepts discussed.
5. Encourage Open Dialogue: Use these prompts as conversation starters to encourage open dialogue in your classroom. Allow students to express their thoughts and feelings freely, creating a safe and supportive environment for SEL exploration.
By integrating these practices into your daily routine, you'll provide consistent opportunities for SEL growth and development in your classroom.
