Social-Emotional Learning in SB5688

2/10/2015

0 Comments

 
"Students today experience unfathomable stresses. Over thirty thousand K-12 students are homeless. Thousands experience bullying, depression, abuse, or have witnessed domestic violence or other violence in their communities. Many have lost a parent or suffered a traumatic experience.  

Emotions and relationships directly affect how students learn and how they use that learning in other contexts. If a student is anxious, afraid, or worried about other stresses in his or her life,  those emotions will interfere with attention, memory, and positive  behaviors. By developing social and emotional skills, students will  be equipped with tools to overcome barriers to their learning and even find solace in education and going to school."
