Synopsis: This curriculum unit will make a significant contribution to educators seeking strategies that contribute to the well-being of their students. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has made strengthening mental health support and resources a priority for school systems throughout the country and should not be underestimated. In this unit, students will focus on body-mind awareness skills and strategies that will embody lifelong social-emotional learning (SEL) skills through movement and expression. Students will develop the five pillars of social-emotional learning: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making through engagement and movement in and out of the classroom. In addition, this unit will support teachers in restoring balance to the classroom through design and structure. As I have utilized SEL strategies in the classroom with my students we have begun to build stronger relationships through trust.
