Strong Teens, Grades 9-12: A Social & Emotional Learning Curriculum

Teachers work hard to give students outstanding instruction in academic subjects--but how can they teach social-emotional competence, the foundation of school and social success? Strong Kids has the answers. Divided into five proven, age-appropriate curricula from preschool through high school (see page 38 to learn about the NEW Pre-K edition), Strong Kids is the fun and easy way to help students develop the social-emotional skills they need to succeed: managing anger, relieving stress, solving interpersonal problems, and much more. And field testing shows the Strong Kids curricula generate positive responses from students and teachers and really help increase students' knowledge of healthy social-emotional behavior.
