Description

This product is a collaboration between Project Adventure and The Browne Center for Innovative Learning. The PACK aligns with their easy-to-use sourcebook, "Social and Emotional Learning in Action Experiential Activities to Positively Impact School Climate" for school educators. The pedagogical basis for these lessons is shaped around the research findings of the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL), indicating that the inclusion of social and emotional development programs positively affect academic achievement. CASEL has identified five interrelated cognitive, affective, and behavioral competencies: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision making. Social and Emotional Learning in Action (SELA) will address all five. SELA will provide a developmentally sequenced year-long/ modular flow that integrates the benefits of experiential and social-emotional learning into the classroom. Each lesson (36 total) will offer step-by-step instructions.
