Anyone who’s taught a class knows how quickly it can all devolve. A laugh in one corner of the room, rising suddenly from the midst of 20 minutes of focus, can race down a row of students and catch fire in the other corner. Before you’ve had a chance to react, the whole class is caught up in the fun. Sometimes you should just give in. Providing students with the time and space to be kids—to laugh, chat, and make friends—can be a release valve that prevents disruptive behavior down the line. But bringing the class back to attention when it’s gone off the rails remains a critical classroom management technique, and so we compiled a list of teacher-tested calm-down strategies as the school year gets started.

Giving computers to children is not going to solve all their problems. In many cases, internet access and bandwidth are issues preventing students from using technology and learning in meaningful ways. If students cannot utilize the technology they have, there is not equity.

The important part of using games in the classroom is trying not to gamify everything and to start small, using games with rules that students understand, says Cameron-Jarvis. The mix of games also matters, adds Farber, who says teachers should aim for variety. If you do let kids play games in class, he says, “think about the emotions those games evoke besides strategy and procedure."

Social and emotional learning (SEL) is the process through which children and adults acquire and effectively apply the knowledge, attitudes, and skills necessary to understand and manage emotions, set and achieve positive goals, feel and show empathy for others, establish and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions.

We just rolled out our first Emotional Inyelligence Learning session to our more tenured leaders . Excited I was also apprehensive how this would be received by sales leaders slammed with tasks , quota and transformational activities going all around them .... it was too long only the program when one Sales Leader commented “ Why don’t we do this for all of our associates “ AH HA Moment and we were off

and running ... data is clear EQ accounts for 60% of performance

oh overall highest ratings for this one workshop over 5 year look back

“Maslow before Bloom”—we hear it all the time. The idea that educators should meet students’ basic needs for safety and belonging before turning to challenging academic tasks is one that guides the work of many schools. In this era of high-stakes testing and inflexible curricula, that’s not as easy to do as it sounds. The need to do 45 minutes of preplanned reading instruction, followed in lockstep by 45 minutes of math, leads many teachers, especially newer ones, to conclude that they simply don’t have the time to plan for brain breaks, or to check in with students regularly to make sure they’re feeling OK.

A passionate plea to add SEL/EQ training as required core curriculum in all high schools. Five more Canadian teens commit suicide after being bullied.

The proposed course would teach empowerment and self-coaching skills:
- How to shift your thoughts and choose positivity.
- How to accept imperfection and feel worthy and good enough
- How to develop empathy, sensitivity and mindfulness
- How to let go of judgement and labels
- How to communicate compassionately and effectively
