In early childhood education, emotional development is just as important as learning ABCs and 123s. This training module, “Nurturing Little Hearts: Teaching SEL in Preschool,” guides educators in cultivating empathy, cooperation, and emotional awareness in young learners through play, storytelling, and daily routines.
You will explore how to create nurturing classroom environments where every interaction supports children’s emotional growth. Through real-life preschool scenarios and straightforward SEL strategies, teachers will learn to help children recognise their feelings, build friendships, resolve minor conflicts and express themselves positively, all the while fostering a sense of belonging and trust.
