Parent Education Event - Supporting Children's Social-Emotional Development

Presented by Jennifer Quest-Stern

Adolescent students are in a constant process of cognitive and emotional development. The classroom experience is rich with emotional experiences that impact the development of emotional intelligence and emotional literacy. It is not reasonable to expect people to handle subjects that are personal and emotional purely in an “intellectual capacity.” Therefore, it is helpful to predict topics of study that are likely to have a strong emotional impact on students to help students interface with the content thoughtfully and handle emotional responses wisely.
