SEL can help all young people and adults thrive personally and academically, develop and maintain positive relationships, become lifelong learners, and contribute to a more caring, just world.
We define social and emotional learning (SEL) as an integral part of education and human development. SEL is the process through which all young people and adults acquire and apply the knowledge, skills, and attitudes to develop healthy identities, manage emotions and achieve personal and collective goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain supportive relationships, and make responsible and caring decisions.

SEL advances educational equity and excellence through authentic school-family-community partnerships to establish learning environments and experiences that feature trusting and collaborative relationships, rigorous and meaningful curriculum and instruction, and ongoing evaluation. SEL can help address various forms of inequity and empower young people and adults to co-create thriving schools and contribute to safe, healthy, and just communities.

ABOUT FLY FIVE
ABOUT FLY FIVE
Fly Five is a kindergarten to eighth-grade social and emotional learning curriculum developed on the core belief that, in order for students to be academically, socially, and behaviorally successful in, out of, and beyond school, they need to learn a set of social and emotional competencies, namely cooperation, assertiveness, responsibility, empathy, and self-control (C.A.R.E.S.). The Fly Five lessons are intentionally designed to be easy to follow and implement so that teachers can place their attention on the important work of noticing a student’s academic, social, and emotional growth and progress and creating conditions for that progress to continue.
There are daily lessons, and each lesson is color-coded according to its competency color and icon.
All grade levels have five units with four themes based upon the C.A.R.E.S. standards.
Each unit has a School to Home Connection component delivered as a newsletter (English, Spanish) with information and flexible SEL activities.
Each grade level has a deck of age- and grade-appropriate mindfulness cards aligned to the lesson objectives. These cards can be used throughout the day.
All lessons provide both a teacher and a student objective and identify the materials that are needed to complete each session in the lesson.
All lessons provide interactive learning structures (ILS) for active and interactive learning (individual, small group, and whole class) with guidance for the teacher on how to do the ILS.
The lessons provide key points for facilitating discussion and monitoring student interaction.
Some lessons include bully-prevention strategies.
Lessons can be adapted to meet the needs of a school’s context and schedule.
All 20-30 minute sessions end with a reflection that is to be used as a formative assessment.
