9am Featured Speaker Mary Anne Buckley presents: Integrating Social, Emotional, and Literacy Learning
Social and emotional skills are essential for communication and understanding. Explicitly teaching skills such as empathy and perseverance can help build communities that have engaging conversations, respectful debates, and productive collaborations. Teachers will learn how to teach and embed these social and emotional skills into their reading and writing workshops.
