Social-Emotional Learning

Families Want to Know...

Will my child be kind to others?

Will my child have friends?

How do I help my child to have a positive self-image?

How can I help my child cope with challenges and become a problem solver?

Research has shown that children need social and

emotional skills to be successful in the future*

What are social-emotional skills?

Social and Emotional Skills include the ability to:

• develop friendships

• share and take turns

• follow directions

• use problem-solving skills

• understand routines

• demonstrate self-control

• identify and manage emotions

NH Communities and classrooms are using the Pyramid Model

to support children's social and emotional development.

Our preschool and kindergarten programs use Pyramid Model practices to support children in having better social skills and less challenging behavior.
