Social emotional learning (SEL) is the process through which all young people and adults acquire and apply the knowledge, skills, and attitudes to develop healthy identities, manage emotions and achieve personal and collective goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain supportive relationships, and make responsible and caring decisions.
In order to implement and engage SEL, we use the CASEL Wheel.
The CASEL Wheel stands for Collaborative for Academic, Social, Emotional Learning. Within this wheel are the CASEL 5.
The CASEL 5 addresses five broad and interrelated areas of competence and highlights examples for each. The CASEL 5 can be taught and applied at various developmental stages from childhood to adulthood and across diverse cultural contexts.
The CASEL 5 include:
  • SELF AWARENESS
  • SELF MANAGEMENT
  • SOCIAL AWARENESS
  • RELATIONSHIP SKILLS
  • RESPONSIBLE DECISION MAKING
Learning Without Tears is a curriculum that focuses on providing developmentally appropriate instruction in handwriting, literacy, and math for students from Pre-K through 5th grade. This curriculum helps students with their Dysgraphia and Fine Motor & Handwriting Skills. 
The Orton Gillingham Curriculum helps students with dyslexia and their reading skills development. This curriculum is appropriate for all ages and skill levels.
Step-by-step instruction helps each student master skills in a cumulative way, incorporating tactile and visual as well as auditory elements. This approach provides students with a solid foundation for building a thorough understanding of reading, writing, spelling, and vocabulary, ensuring that every student has the skills and the confidence to succeed in the classroom.
