BACKGROUND
The mind+heart social and emotional learning curriculum was designed to help teachers
instruct young children to develop emotional literacy, self-control, and social competence.
The ultimate goal is for primary aged children to develop a healthy sense of self and
positive peer relations, that will continue throughout their lives. Children will learn to
express their emotions appropriately, solve problems, develop a “growth mindset”, build
relationships, and be thoughtful citizens who take responsibility and show respect.
mind+heart is research based and loosely aligns to the CASEL framework of the 5 core
competences for SEL. It provides educators with an affordable option that is
comprehensive and appropriate for the K-2 classroom.
