Ideas and Tools for Working with Parents and Families

"One of the most frequently accessed items on the CASEL web site is our packet for parents, consisting of four handouts on how parents can help promote the social and emotional development of their children:
10 Things You Can Do at Home
10 Things You Can Do with Your School
Tips for Parents
Books for Parents
We are pleased to announce that this popular resource, with support from the Mid-Atlantic Regional Educational Laboratory for Student Success, has been substantially expanded. Titled Ideas and Tools for Working with Parents and Families, the packet now includes the four handouts above, plus:
Research: Background on the role of families in teaching SEL, and how families and teachers can work together to promote SEL
Parents’ Voices: Parents’ views on SEL programs being used at their children's schools based on a series of interviews with parents
SEL Resources: Books, organizations, and programs emphasizing SEL
In addition, the four handouts for parents are now available in Spanish."
