Making Way for a Research-based Curriculum for Improved Academic, Social, and Emotional Outcomes

In this webinar, educators learned about key components of the Fly Five SEL curriculum. We reviewed what research tells us about school-based SEL, and examined with a close lens Fly Five’s guiding principles, which align with research-based recommendations.

Participants:

• Learned about the guiding principles of Fly Five
• Explored how the guiding principles support a research-based SEL program
• Learned about the research behind Fly Five, and how SEL leads to improved academic performance.
