Ethics: The Garden for Social and Emotional Growth

Research shows that it is critical to develop students’ relationship and character building skills starting in early grades. Yet a focus on academic needs leaves little time for additional content, specifically when it comes to social and emotional growth.

What if learning didn’t have to exclude SEL initiatives? Through an ethics-focused SEL initiative, students can learn how to make responsible decisions, build relationships, self manage, and foster general self-awareness, all while connecting these skills to literacy content.

Join EdCuration and Epic Ethics as we dive into strategies on how to incorporate ethics education and SEL into core subject areas, aligned to literacy instruction. Hear from guest speaker, Larry Donnithorne, President Emeritus of Colorado Christian University as he discusses ethics as a core need for all students. Following the brief keynote, Epic Ethics founder, Ron Green, explores the platform in greater detail.

Watch this on-demand webinar to:

• Understand the role that ethics plays in any SEL initiative
• Learn strategies that can be used to foster SEL growth alongside core literacy content
• Identify ways to build students’ self-awareness, critical thinking, and interpersonal relationships skills starting in early grades
