What do we mean by "social and emotional learning"?
OUT Maine teaches social and emotional learning competencies (self awareness, self management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision making) through various content mediums and areas of interest, many of which can be applied to both children and adults. In the same way that playing on a sports team can teach relationship skills like collaboration, our staff has used yoga to teach self management, art to teach social awareness, and more.
