By: Gia dan Laim 4A

Year 4 has been learning how to conduct interviews and use the information to write a summary. Students are interviewing each other to write biographies of other students in Year 4. We will take these biographies and create a Year 4 Yearbook. Gia and Laim from 4A wrote the following biography about their new teacher, Pak Jared.

SEL and Digital Citizenship with Ibu Ninggar

By: Emma 4A

For the PDP session, Ibu Ninggar came to Year 4 to teach us how SEL and Digital Citizenship are related. Ibu Ninggar told us to open this website first - What Is the CASEL Framework? to learn more about SEL (Social Emotional Learning). We learned about the five important SEL skills.

1. Self-Awareness

2. Self-Management

3. Social Awareness

4. Relationship Skills

5. Responsible Decision-Making

Self-Awareness is when you are aware of your behaviors, feelings, and thoughts. It is reflective. For example, many people journal daily to reflect on their emotions, ideas, and behaviors to get notes on how to get better each day, grow, and learn more about their feelings.

Self-Management is when you can manage your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is related to being principled. It’s when you can tell between right and wrong to do the right thing and help benefit their growing journey.

Social Awareness is when you are aware of the people in your surroundings and their emotions and behaviors. For example, you know other people’s feelings and how they behave, react, and feel.

Relationship Skills are when you have skills to socialize, create relationships with new people and friends, and maintain those relationships. Making long-lasting relationships that can benefit your feelings, thoughts, and emotions to boost your ego is very useful.

Responsible Decision-Making is when you are responsible for making decisions that can positively or negatively impact yourself. For example, you have some work to do, and tomorrow is the deadline, and the estimated time is around an hour, and your friends want to watch a movie in the cinema, and the film is also an hour, but you still have your homework to do. If you choose your friends, your teacher may be disappointed in you but your friends might get angry if you prefer your work. What will you do?

After we learned about 5 SEL Skills, we needed to mention examples of how to use those skills when we are using technology. We gave some examples in this padlet.
