Reflecting on Personal SEL Skills

A good starting point for engaging staff in adult SEL is self-reflection. When staff reflect on their own social and emotional competencies, they personalize SEL, gain a deeper understanding of the lifelong process for developing competencies, and have insight into their own strengths and areas for improvement.

Below, we provide a tool that can be used with any adult to reflect on their own social and emotional growth. You can also find additional resources from the American Institutes for Research that target teachers and out-of-school time staff.
