Feb 16th PLS 311 Social Emotional Learning in the Classroom by Kristin Lecel https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f Made with an open mind en-us 2022-02-16 23:26:03 UTC 2022-02-17 00:45:40 UTC hello@padlet.com My students need SEL to feel secure and happy enough to free their minds up to learn. https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052106307 2022-02-17 00:37:25 UTC https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052106307 My students have had a lot of trauma and ongoing emotional struggles. SEL helps them clear their minds and relax more in the classroom environment. https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052107958 2022-02-17 00:38:41 UTC https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052107958 https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052109955 I have a fellow teacher use their morning time to get students ready for class by allowing them to play card games and letting students interact and socialize for a little each morning before instruction. ]]> 2022-02-17 00:39:48 UTC https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052109955 Convincing our students to attend school requires that we provide a safe space and are in tune to their needs. We have a team of teachers, social workers, counselors, career coaches, etc., that help with that but SEL has to be implemented in the classroom and the students heard, or they don't show up. https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052110088 2022-02-17 00:39:55 UTC https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052110088 Students aren't able to learn effectively if they are constantly struggling with social emotional issues. SEL can help give them tools to deal with all the stuff they may be dealing with https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052110090 2022-02-17 00:39:55 UTC https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052110090 https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052110151 I have seen SEL implemented well during my Friday free-writes. This gives students 10 min. to write about whatever is on their minds. Students seem to enjoy and write the most on Fridays!

I've also seen SEL implemented in group work. When students are grouped effectively, the support one another academically and social/emotionally.

I've seen videos of 2nd graders doing morning circles that were amazing. https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052110613 2022-02-17 00:40:22 UTC https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052110613 I want to know how to implement SEL in a way that is beneficial to my students- we have a social emotional curriculum that I have not received yet. I've been trying to teach my own lessons and do community circles, but I want to know that what I'm doing is effective for the students or find out what else I can do https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052110740 2022-02-17 00:40:29 UTC https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052110740 I'm interested in applying to my classes but want to know how to do it mid-year. Is it better to have started it at the beginning of the year? https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052111040 2022-02-17 00:40:42 UTC https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052111040 https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052111201 My students learn SEL to be able to regulate themselves and learn to be empathetic and compassionate to others. They learn to communicate and verbalize how they feel. ]]> 2022-02-17 00:40:50 UTC https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052111201 I am leaning in on CRT content, but know that many topics are stressful and potentially proximal traumatic to study. I'd like to feel more confident imparting the reality of Reconstruction alongside how to handle knowing the reality of Reconstruction. https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052111323 2022-02-17 00:40:56 UTC https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052111323 https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052111582 A variety of SEL activities that can be implemented daily.]]> 2022-02-17 00:41:10 UTC https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052111582 I want to know how to implement SEL in every subject area. There are so many students who experience trauma regularly in my class. https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052111772 2022-02-17 00:41:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052111772 While student teaching, I saw a mentor teacher hold meditation circles and follow that with free writes based on a social/emotional topic. https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052112646 2022-02-17 00:41:32 UTC https://padlet.com/kristin_lecel1/2ys9s4j90idd658f/wish/2052112646 I've seen a fellow teacher post a daily Google form with emoji choices to choose from.
