SEL Second Step Program
Dear Parents,
In this week’s Second Step lesson, your child will use empathy to identify problems in their school community and think about how these problems might affect other people; this is an important first step toward making positive change in the community.
Your child will learn how different parts of their brains play a part in managing their strong emotions. They will distinguish thoughts from emotions. They will also analyze how emotions affect their thoughts, and how their thoughts can influence their decisions.
Parents try asking your child to explain the difference between an emotion and a thought and then ask for an example of each.
