“As educators, we know we have content to cover, but we also know that our students’ well-being is important.  When students feel safe, they can access learning.  But how do we do that?  When planning a lesson, we can’t just spew out content and ‘hope’ that students will understand.  One way to engage students and increase learning is to create an environment where learning can occur.  SEL is a great start.”
