Chapter 4 provided ten practices to embed SEL into your classrooms: (1) transitions, (2) SEL student goal setting, (3) SEL daily routines, (4) picture book read-alouds and reading comprehension strategies, (5) social-emotional learning during play, (6) SELfocused partner or group games, (7) SEL journal writing, (8) SEL projects, (9) teachable moments, and (10) SEL classroom learning centers and menus. The challenge for us as educators, of course, is planning for SEL so that our lessons and activities are purposeful and connected to students’ lives. Chapter 5 (page 223) provides planning templates so that teams can create both yearlong and weekly plans, as well as templates to support intentionally planning how to integrate SEL into academics.
