Helping students build emotional literacy early in the year sets the tone for a more connected, compassionate, and emotionally intelligent classroom all year long.

Our Emotional Literacy Toolkit features three simple, powerful practices to help students grow their emotional intelligence in age-appropriate and inclusive ways. Whether you’re leading a class meeting, setting the tone for the day, or integrating SEL into your morning routine, these practices help students build voice, empathy, and emotional regulation, all while creating a classroom culture of compassion and presence.

Your free pack includes 3 beautifully designed, easy-to-lead strategies:

✅ 2 Word Check-In: Build emotional awareness and presence through daily self-reflection

✅ Name It to Tame It: Help students identify and regulate strong emotions using language and journaling

✅ Weather Report: Invite students to check in with their inner emotional “weather” and share in a safe, structured way

Rooted in Emotional Intelligence, this toolkit empowers both educators and students to foster connection, regulation, and compassion in every learning environment.
