• Social Emotional Productivity

  Funded Jan 4, 2024

  The reaction from students during the unboxing was unexpected. Students had one hundred and one questions about the resources. The items didn't make sense, so we discussed how they would be used to initiate discussions about social and emotional well-being in a small group, whole group, or one on one sessions. It is also possible to gradually release students to utilize the discussion prompts to facilitate student led groups. Each set of discussion starters (cards and cubes) can be selected at random to ease tension and students are usually directed to volunteer as facilitators.

  All of the resources are invaluable. The resources are readily shared with the counselors and other instructors. We are extremely grateful and have implented the social and emotional books and resources to establish a safe haven and confort zone for students. Thank you so cuch for providing a means to build build social and emotional awareness.”
