Emotional development
The video to the right is a clip from a PBS show called This Emotional Life. This is a tribute story about Jeff who committed suicide at just the age of 15. This clip shows us how a student might feel if they do not directly express their feelings. We as teachers have to be able to identify who is being bullied. We as leaders of children have to try and teach children ways of expressing their feelings.

The video to the left of the screen is Diana Nakayenga speaking about people who were emotionally bullied. This video explains how some people ignore bullying and keep going on with there life where as others bullying sticks with them forever and some even take their own life because they could not handle being bullied any longer. This is another example of why teachers and administration need to come together and teach our students about emotions and different ways to express those emotions. |
This comic shows what we tell our children. Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me. This is probably the biggest misconception we have ever passed on through generations. Words hurt just as much as sticks and stones because we can recall those words that people have said to us over the years. This is a huge issue. Children do not know how to express their feelings in positive ways. |
Social Emotional Learning

This video shares with us important exercises we can implement in our lesson plans. Trying to get students outside of there comfort zone can help students grow emotionally because it is something that they are not used to. Having students be in different points of view can help them learn emotionally that they can stand up to other students. |
