Are you a teacher or counselor providing general Social-Emotional Learning, or SEL, to your whole classroom? If so, videos are a fun, quick, and relatively easy way to provide SEL on a frequent basis! But, researching the perfect videos that are age appropriate and actually good takes time. If you are looking for an easy way to provide videos on a weekly or monthly basis, please check out my Videos list (seen above) for a school year’s worth of videos, organized by monthly topic. There are 7-8 Videos per month.
Here are the topics themes organized by month:
- August & September: School Based Skills-Listening, Following Directions, behavior at school
- October: Learning about emotions
- November: Social skills: Playing with others and personal space
- December: Social Skills: Empathy, friendship & manners
- January: Growth mindset and positive thinking
- February: coping skills and Zones of Regulation
- March: Mindfulness
- April: Controlling Anger and Emotional Regulation
- May: Self-control
- June: showing respect and bullying
