#LearnLAP A8 create a culture of collaboration. They have to know you want them involved, they have to sense you are creating a new culture by breaking the mold they have seen so often and know they have a unique value to you

[Victoria Dunaj @DunajVictoria]

#LearnLAP I think when these ideas are taught, the students have the language to communicate with each other effectively. If we do not teach SEL skills, we are asking them to deal issues they all will face daily for the rest of their lives without resources

[Victoria Dunaj @DunajVictoria]

#LearnLAP A6 they have to have ownership of the classroom dynamics with you, we have to have them involved and also participating in creating the culture

[Victoria Dunaj @DunajVictoria]

#LearnLAP A5 we hear about it in their family lives and see it play out with good choices on campus! It encourages us all!

[Victoria Dunaj @DunajVictoria]

#LearnLAP A4 we need to remember the goal is to learn! Just finished a class where the teacher allowed each student who made less than a 90, a chance to study the missed material a d try again on just those questions to average the two grades. This allows students to stay +

[Victoria Dunaj @DunajVictoria]

My teacher taught a great class on self advocacy and emotional awareness. We need to have curiculm and tools to teach them self regulation just as we have resources for math and science.

Q3: What resources and tools do you recommend to someone just starting out in addressing #SEL? #LearnLAP

[Victoria Dunaj @DunajVictoria]

#LearnLAP A2 Be available! Invite the students into your life and listen and learn about their lives. Set clear expectations so they know how to feel comfortable in your classroom

[Victoria Dunaj @DunajVictoria]

A2#LearnLAP being available! Invite the students into your life and let them know you care about their lives.

[Victoria Dunaj @DunajVictoria]

A2#LearnLAP be a available! Let them know you are there and want to know them and their story.

[Victoria Dunaj @DunajVictoria]

A1 #LearnLAP SEL is teaching the whole child. Teaching them not just the content in the books but also how to manage and respond to events in their lives.

[Victoria Dunaj @DunajVictoria]

My first chat was last Monday! It is a lot of fun! I learned to reference my comments with A1:, A2 etc. to help keep everything in order :-)

#msoskil challenged by Dr. Jones to create a 5cluechallenge! Great way to share with our students the world around us!
