These SEL and Mindfulness Cards for Teachers and Parents offer research-based tools to help students, teachers and parents build social-emotional learning (SEL) and mindfulness skills.

SEL includes the process of cultivating self-awareness, understanding and managing one’s emotions, practicing social-awareness, developing healthy relationships, and learning to make responsible decisions.

Mindfulness is the act of practicing present moment awareness to have a more clear and focused mind. Through these fun and easy to use cards, and the accompanying guide, educators and parents have the opportunity to build inclusive and caring learning environments.

All cards are associated with Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL) Core Competency icons.  When the cards are used with the Teaching Guide, they become a pre-k through 5th grade curriculum and can be woven throughout the school day.

This guide features a selection of 30 cards that include extensions for curriculum integration, guided discussion practices, and methods for implementing SEL and mindfulness into campuses or homeschool classrooms.

The guide also helps develop adult proficiency in SEL and mindfulness through personal and professional practice. Additionally, the guide and cards have been created through an equity lens and include exercises to strengthen diversity and inclusion.

While teachers and parents can lead students with the cards, students are also empowered to use the cards on their own or with a group.

Both the SEL and Mindfulness Cards and Guide offer an research-based SEL and Mindfulness curriculum that can be integrated throughout the school day. Together the cards and guide empower the teacher or parent to integrate tools for finding greater calm, focus and connection into their experience with their students or children.
