If there's one thing teachers can agree on, it's that social and emotional learning is a hot topic in education. But beyond this, questions still remain. Many educators find themselves wondering, what exactly is SEL? How should it be taught? What does it look like in the classroom? And, is it our job as educators to teach students non-academic life skills? Based on author Dr. Amy Cranston's experiences with implementing SEL from a practical standpoint, this book defines SEL and digs into the real work of how to incorporate SEL in K-12 schools. Featured case studies demonstrate real-world applications of SEL in different types of K-12 learning environments. By supporting the emotional needs of students, educators will not only address issues such as discipline problems and absenteeism, but will help their students to be more mindful and self-aware. By encouraging spaces where intrapersonal and interpersonal skills are celebrated and cultivated, educators will set the foundation for all students to succeed.

Review

What I have learned from my little sister s book -- I mean, Dr. Cranston's book -- is that the whole-child approach to education is now embraced as a legitimate and effective method of teaching and learning. Teachers everywhere understand the power of helping students find and nurture their passions. Bravo! Bravo, to all of you educators out there. You who have one of the hardest and most important jobs and who hold the well-being of future generations in your hands --Bryan Cranston, Father, Husband, Actor, Proud Older Brother

This book is a wonderful resource to help us understand the context for this new emphasis and openness around social and emotional learning. It provides guidance for how each of us can impact another human for the better and find our own personal growth and transformation in the process. In short, what is social and emotional learning in its most distilled state? Love. --Michael Funk, Director, California Department of Education, Expanded Learning Division.
