Abstract

Social and Emotional Learning continues to grow and take part at all times in schools. This capstone project extends social and emotional learning (SEL) to time outside of school. The project discusses the relationship between schools and families/caregivers with the common goal of extending learning outside of school. This project creates a website as a resource to aid families/caregivers in reinforcing social and emotional skills outside of school. The following question is proposed: How can we make Social and Emotional Learning more accessible for 1st grade families and caregivers in order to reinforce social and emotional skills outside of school? The research explores social and emotional skills, relationships between schools and families/caregivers, equity, and mental health. The website created consists of information on SEL and activities for families/caregivers to work on with their students throughout the school year. The goal of this project is to reinforce social and emotional skills in students through collaboration between educators and families/caregivers.
