new perspectives on educational practices

Custom Professional Development for School Staff and Educators

Our professional development programs are designed for K-12 teachers, specialists, school administrators, and pre-service teachers to integrate experiential learning into the classroom. Share best practices with other educators while learning activities and methods for engaging students and simultaneously meeting state standards. Educators and administrators will gain new perspectives on their own educational practices while having their own “aha” experience with their peers.

Topics include: Social & Emotional Learning, Experiential Education, Diversity & Inclusion, Anti-bullying & Empathy; and Creating a Positive School Culture.

About the Book

Social and Emotional Learning in Action (SELA) provides a developmentally sequenced year-long, modular flow or stand-alone lessons that integrate the benefits of experiential and social emotional learning into the classroom. The pedagogical bases for these lessons are shaped around the research findings of CASEL’s core competencies.

Each of the 36 lessons start with the intended theme, focus, and activities, including their anticipated time frames and required materials. Preview lesson one below:
