Essential SEL Skills

As educators, we know that a student’s ability to learn is deeply tied to their emotional state. But for us, Social-Emotional Learning isn’t just a secular curriculum—it is the “foundation of the entire Chabad approach.”

This guide from Chinuch Labs illustrates how we can help students:

  • Identify Triggers: Moving from reactive behavior to thoughtful Middos.
  • Set Personal Goals: Teaching the art of Heshbon Hanefesh in a modern context.
  • Build Interpersonal Skills: Rooting Ahavas Yisrael in practical, daily interactions.

Check out the attached PDF for a breakdown of essential SEL skills mapped to our Chassidishe values. Let’s empower our students to develop their Sechel so it can truly shape their Middos.
