What is Social Emotional Learning?
Social-emotional learning (or SEL) is sometimes called emotional intelligence or people skills. SEL helps people build their empathy and relationship skills and manage big emotions. Having strong social-emotional skills help kids and their grown-ups communicate better, manage their conflicts, and solve problems together.
