Gearing Up For Summer: Social Emotional Learning

5/23/2022

 
We have worked hard this year to provide social-emotional learning for all students at MELA. Social-emotional learning teaches students crucial life skills, including the ability to understand themselves, develop a positive self-image, take responsibility for their actions, and forge relationships with the people around them. As we close the door on another school year, we begin anew with a summer full of opportunity and hope for everyone! This summer season is a perfect opportunity to take advantage of making social-emotional health a priority. After the exhausting year that students, educators and parents have been through, we all really need it.

We want to set families up well to easily incorporate wellness activities into your summer fun, so with the help of our Occupational Therapist, Amy Lou Anderson, we have created an SEL packet for the summer. If you would be interested in one of these, please reach out to Ms. Erin Rudbeck or myself, Mrs. Autumn Terlouw, and we would be happy to send one home with your student(s). We have also included different websites the provide free/reduced cost events throughout the summer: 
  • https://www.minneapolis.org/things-to-do/family/free-inexpensive-family-fun/
  • https://www.minneapolisparks.org/activities__events/
  • https://bringmethenews.com/minnesota-lifestyle/minneapolis-park-programs-are-free-for-kids-at-17-sites-this-summer
