SEL and Academic Integration: The integration of SEL objectives into instructional content and teaching strategies for academics as well as music, art, and physical education. When done well, integration of SEL promotes student voice and agency and a positive learner identity.
Aligning SEL and Academic Objectives
As your SEL team works with teachers to align SEL and academic objectives, it’s also important to consider how the content is delivered so that it supports the practice of social and emotional competencies.
Assess needs and resources to develop an SEL implementation plan with clear goals, action steps, and assigned ownership.
Social and emotional learning is essential to every child’s education.
Schoolwide SEL is evidenced by indicators in the classroom, school, family, and community.
