Connecting with Others: Social Engagement [PDF ebook] 

Being an active participant in a community is a vital aspect of social and emotional learning. It allows people to feel that they can be a driving force for social change in their communities while also allowing them to meet people from different backgrounds. Children can engage in their communities in a variety of ways, including volunteering their time to help a cause and participating in marches or protests. Participating in their community also gives them a chance to practice other social and emotional learning skills, such as effective communication and the importance of building strong relationships. This interactive e Book includes quizzes, video, profiles of key figures and organizations, and actor-narrated audio which imparts the motivation that young learners need to engage and build social connections.
