This trusted resource--now in a thoroughly updated second edition
reflecting the tremendous growth of the field--provides a best-practice
guide to planning and implementing social and emotional learning (SEL)
in K-12 classrooms and schools. The authors present a roadmap to help
practitioners choose exemplary programs and strategies, integrate SEL
with academics and mental health interventions, create culturally
affirming programming for diverse students, use assessment to guide
data-based decision making, and support educator SEL. In a convenient
large-size format, the volume includes illustrative vignettes and 24
reproducible worksheets and other practical tools. Purchasers get access
to a Web page where they can download and print the reproducible
materials.
