For Teachers: Social-Emotional Checklist of Early Care and Education Practices

As you review the practices in your classroom, don’t forget about a very important area of child development: learning social and emotional skills (or how to get along with others and how to understand and express feelings in an appropriate way). Social and emotional skills are the foundation of all learning in the early years and teachers who focus on helping children develop these skills are truly getting them ready for school!

This checklist will help you review your classroom through a social-emotional lens.
