Excellerations® Social-Emotional Learning Supplies

Excellerations® Social-Emotional Learning products, such as book sets and block sets, are commonly used in classrooms to enhance students’ understanding of emotions and develop their social-emotional skills. The Excellerations® Let’s Talk About Feelings and Emotions Book Set 1, for instance, includes four books with real-world photos and diverse characters, addressing topics that provoke conversations about different emotions such as anger, sadness, fear, and happiness. Similarly, the Excellerations® Build and Match Emotions Block Sets involve children in activities that help them recognize how emotions manifest differently across individuals. These resources encourage children to articulate their feelings, ask questions, and engage in meaningful discussions, contributing significantly to their mental well-being and social development.

When buying Excellerations® Social-Emotional Learning products for school use, teachers should consider the durability and safety of the materials, the age appropriateness of the content, and how these tools align with their classroom objectives. For example, book sets like the Excellerations® Let’s Talk About Responsibilities Book Set come with thick, laminated pages and safety staples, making them durable and safe options for young learners. Additionally, teachers should look for products that include helpful guides and questions to facilitate discussions, such as the Excellerations® Wooden Stack and Build Toddler Emotions Puzzle, which includes an activity guide to help children recognize and empathize with different emotions. Ensuring that the products are inclusive and feature diverse characters, as seen in the real-world photography elements, is also crucial in creating an inclusive learning environment.

Students can use Excellerations® Social-Emotional Learning products in school for a variety of activities designed to help them explore and understand their own emotions as well as those of others. The Excellerations® Rainbow Breathing Board, for example, offers a tactile and visual approach to practicing mindfulness and breathing techniques, which can help students manage stress and develop a sense of calm. Through books like the Excellerations® Let’s Talk About Being Healthy Book Set, students can learn the importance of self-care practices such as exercise, healthy eating, and adequate sleep. Other tools, such as the Excellerations® Build & Match Emotions Block Set Kit 2, engage students in interactive play while teaching them that feelings like shyness, peace, disgust, and surprise are common and normal. These activities promote emotional intelligence, empathy, and effective communication among students, fostering a supportive classroom environment.
