Middle School SEL for 2020-2021
I have so many exciting things I will be covering this year as a way to help you reach your full potential! For the first several weeks, you will receive links with videos or activities that you can use at home. Each week you will receive the links to the activities or even to join a Zoom meeting. In mid-September we will begin a program called Second Step. I will be recording lessons for you to watch that will cover a variety of topics on helping you grow as a middle school student! How exciting! Please see below for detailed information about Second Step!
The Second Step Middle School Program is SEL that brings together today’s technology, the latest in developmental research, and feedback from actual classrooms. The result: a program that helps build a culture of connectedness and empowers middle schoolers with the skills and concepts to succeed socially, in academics, and in life. Our web-based social-emotional learning program helps students become socially skilled, form healthy relationships, make good decisions, and cope with the social and academic challenges of middle school.
