The Importance of Social and Emotional Learning
A well-defined SEL program is more important than ever.
Today’s students face challenges as they form relationships, develop their identity, and face adversity. Integrating social and emotional learning into the classroom gives educators powerful ways to connect with students through meaningful conversations that can improve behavior, increase student success, and inspire learning that lasts a lifetime.
New SEL Courses to Help Educators Meet the Moment
In response to evolving cultural changes, Edgenuity, in partnership with Purpose Prep, has added a new suite of SEL courses for grades 6–12, including: Climate & Culture Transformation, Restorative Practices & Principles, and Trauma-Informed Living. These new courses have been added to our six existing courses to provide a flexible library of K–12 SEL content to meet the diverse needs of all students.
Purpose Prep™ Elementary for Grades K–5
Research has proven that social and emotional learning is essential for students of all ages. Edgenuity® offers a fun, easy-to-use SEL program for students in grades K–5.
This elementary SEL curriculum provides a powerful foundation of highly engaging, age-appropriate, scaffolded lessons that focus on six basic emotions: sadness, anger, fear, happiness, love, and peace. Our youngest students (K–2) learn to recognize emotions in themselves and, as students advance through the program, older students (3–5) practice regulating their emotions and responding appropriately to others. Students also learn about respectful and inclusive behavior along with communication skills to help build a positive classroom community and a healthy learning environment.
