Social and Emotional Learning in Practice: A Toolkit of Practical Strategies and Resources

This toolkit was developed by University of Minnesota Extension.

HERE’S HOW THE CREATORS DESCRIBE THIS TOOLKIT:

Social and emotional learning (SEL) includes learning to be aware of and manage emotions, work well with others, and work hard when faced with challenges. Youth programs develop SEL skills by creating opportunities for young people to engage in real-world projects, work in teams, take on meaningful roles, face challenges, and experience the emotional ups and downs that come along the way. This toolkit includes activities, templates, and tools organized around four ways to help support staff and youth in SEL. It was developed to go along with the 3-hour training, Social and Emotional Learning in Practice, and related issue briefs. It is designed primarily for those working with youth in middle school, but with small changes the activities can be used for other age groups, too.
