Relationship skills<\/h5>\n Building positive relationships is all about clear and constructive communication. During their time at school, learners will be exposed to several learning environments where they\u2018ll need to work collaboratively. They\u2018ll need to communicate effectively, develop positive partnerships, and seek and offer help to people they\u2018re working with.<\/p>\n
How can you use SEL programs to improve learners\u2018 relationship skills? Next time you do group work with your students, get them to:<\/p>\n
Assign each group member a specific, measurable, and achievable role.<\/p>\n
Discuss their expectations for each team member before beginning the task.<\/p>\n
Reflect on how they worked as a group once the task is complete.<\/p>\n
Engage in positive, but honest, conversation!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Responsible Decision Making<\/h5>\n Making responsible decisions is the last of the SEL competencies. It\u2018s all about demonstrating curiosity and open-mindedness. Learners should be encouraged to:<\/p>\n
Make reasoned judgments after closely considering all the information, data, and facts available to them.<\/p>\n
Anticipate and consider the consequences of the decisions they make on themselves and others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Every decision has consequences and learners should be equipped to make choices that result in the best outcome for all. Jump in and try SEL in your classrooms! \u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":21071,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[79],"tags":[28],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
