SEL by Design

We believe that social emotional learning is essential to promoting media literacy. Whether they're discussing current events or considering how to avoid misinformation, students learn best when SEL is addressed. We recently added emojis to our product. to help students  process and reflect on the news and current events while making the learning process more meaningful and engaging.
