Life Skills

Each year at Encinal, the SEL committee chooses 3 Life Skills that are taught throughout the school year. Counselor Bloom delivers lessons in each classroom for each Life Skill. For each grade level, children’s literature and extension activities are specifically selected to reinforce the Life Skill. Each school year there is a culminating school-wide project or activity for the Life Skills learned that year.
