Integrating SEL into a Culturally Responsive Classroom (Session 6)

In this session, participants will learn strategies to promote SEL through culturally responsive practices, and articulate action steps toward embedding culturally competent SEL practices in classrooms.

In addition, participants will examine the benefits of cultural considerations for SEL integration while focusing on recognizing strengths in students, what cultural considerations teachers should be making when implementing SEL, and how does culturally responsive teaching set a foundation for SEL and academic learning.

Modes of Learning

The session was designed to be delivered virtually over your platform of choice.  It is recommended to choose a platform that has breakout room capabilities for participants to engage in smaller, rich, group dialogue.

This is the sixth unit of a six-part e-learning series with each three-hour unit being delivered in synchronous sessions.
