Second Step
A Social-Emotional Curriculum
We will be working on Second Step in 130 during Social Studies on Fridays. Palmer is committed to students' social-emotional growth. Below you will find an explanation of Second Step program along with information about the lesson we are covering for the week. Please reach out with any questions or concerns.
The Second Step® program is a research-based, universal social-emotional learning (SEL) program designed to strengthen students’ social-emotional skills, such as emotion management, impulse control, problem-solving, and empathy. Studies show these skills can help improve academic performance, reduce negative social behaviors, such as bullying, and create more positive classroom and school climates. A comprehensive, schoolwide approach to SEL can increase the likelihood of positive outcomes for students.
We are currently in Unit 1.
