This highly engaging, eminently practical book provides essential resources for implementing social and emotional learning (SEL) in any K-12 setting. Numerous vivid examples illustrate the nuts and bolts of this increasingly influential approach to supporting students'' mental health, behavior, and academic performance. Helpful reproducibles are included. The authors offer clear-cut guidance on how to:
*Choose the right SEL program for a particular school.
*Teach SEL concepts to students, teachers, and administrators.
*Weave SEL into the classroom curriculum to boost academic success.
*Adapt interventions for culturally and linguistically diverse students and those with special needs.
*Monitor outcomes and maximize the quality of interventions.
This book is in The Guilford Practical Intervention in the Schools Series, edited by T. Chris Riley-Tillman.
