Preschool Classroom SEL Kits for the Classroom

Preschool SEL Kits from Excellerations® such as the “My World Poster Set for Social Skills” and the “Emotions & Moods Posters for Schools” are essential tools for creating an inclusive and educational environment in the classroom. These kits include vibrant, full-color posters depicting a diverse range of emotions, activities, and multicultural interactions which help children understand and recognize different feelings and social scenarios. Teachers can use these visuals to reinforce lessons about self-esteem, community participation, and empathy. By displaying these posters around the class or incorporating them into daily activities, educators can facilitate better social-emotional learning and development among young students.

When buying Preschool SEL Kits like the “Excellerations® Community Puzzles” or the “Excellerations® Multicultural Families,” preschool teachers should consider the educational value and cultural inclusivity of the products. For instance, items such as community puzzles not only promote problem-solving and fine motor skills but also celebrate diversity through their imagery of various ethnicities and community roles. Look for materials that are sturdy and age-appropriate, such as wooden puzzles with manageable pieces or magnetic dolls with chipboard construction for durability. Also, ensure that the kits come with additional resources like activity guides to maximize their use in lesson planning.

Preschool students can utilize the “Excellerations® Around The World Puppets” or the “Excellerations® Magnetic Dressing Dolls” to explore themes of diversity, inclusion, and empathy through imaginative play. The multicultural puppets and dressing dolls offer children the opportunity to role-play different cultural stories and day-to-day scenarios, fostering an understanding of global communities. These tools not only advance social-emotional learning but also improve language skills, hand-eye coordination, and cooperation among peers, making them engaging and effective educational resources in a preschool setting.
