SEL skills build a strong foundation for children’s success in school, both academically and socially. In this episode, we will equip educators with ways to incorporate it early and include families in their efforts to support well-rounded student achievement. We’re joined by Deb Grill, who is a Nationally Certified School Psychologist and an assessment consultant with Pearson. Together, we’ll discuss the difference between SEL and social skills development, why SEL is sometimes controversial, key developmental milestones, caregiver communication strategies and the importance of educator wellness.
