Social Emotional Learning
Tools for Life is a social emotional learning and self-regulation program that provides practical strategies and tools that better enable children from age three to grade 8 to cope with their emotions, and act and react appropriately. The children learn to identify their own feelings and recognize body clues as to how others are feeling. They acquire decision-making strategies to channel these emotions into positive interactions and respectful communication. Self-awareness, empathy and self-regulation are enhanced by the program's eight specific tools for dealing with everyday social interactions.
