Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Social Emotional Learning is a process wherein individuals learn to acquire the tools, knowledge, and skillsets so that they can understand and manage their emotions , achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships and make responsible decisions. Due to the pandemic many of my students have developed depression, anxiety, and stress due to the events that occurred during the pandemic or after. My student population are from the age of 11-13. My students do not know how to cope with major life events. Implementing this social emotional rug will allow for me to create a safe, and learning environment for my students.

SEL is a process, and therefore requires time, patience, and I am committed to providing a safe and caring learning environment for my students.

Students engaged in SEL are less aggressive and disruptive in school. Studies have shown these benefits are long-term as SEL students still have 10% fewer psychological, behavioral, or substance abuse problems when they reach the age of 25. For example, if a student can learn to find his or her voice and express anger appropriately, it could prevent him or her from acting inappropriately and damaging relationships.

Developing stronger social/emotional skills improves the academic performance of students. In a 2014 meta-analysis, SEL was shown to raise students’ achievement scores by an average of 11 percentile points. The ‘soft skills’ that students develop through SEL are shown to improve their attitudes towards school and as a result, increase their performance in the classroom. When a student knows that his or her feelings will be heard and respected, it’ll be easier for that student to relax and focus at school.
