Social Emotional Learning (SEL) Monthly Theme

 
Each month, our students and faculty will take time to embrace a Social Emotional Learning theme.
 
We welcome the SEL theme for April, Self Care.
 
Self Care is the practice of taking action to preserve or improve one’s own health. What better way to start a new quarter than by taking time to make sure we are finding ways to take care of ourselves.  
 
Listed below are a few texts to support the implementation of this theme:  
 
Grades Pre-K through 2nd:  
  • I Am Peace - Susan Verde
  • Blackbird Fly - Erin Entrada Kelly
  • You Got This - Steve Turner
Grades 3rd-5th: 
  • One Crazy Summer - Rita Williams Garcia
  • Breathing Is My Superpower - Alicia Ortega
  • As Brave As You - Jason Reynolds
Grades 6th-8th: 
  • Take In the Good - Gina Biegel
  • Revolution - Deborah Wiles

Self Care is truly something we all can better embrace. Please take time to find ways to incorporate this theme into your daily activities.
