Description
This framework provides considerations unique to multilingual learners (MLs) and practical action steps educators can take to foster MLs’ access to the five SEL competencies in the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning SEL framework.
Considerations
For MLs, it is crucial to consider how their diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds can impact their understanding and access to each of CASEL’s five SEL competencies. Consider goals and priorities for your class, school or district, when choosing which SEL competency areas to focus on.
How It Works
You may want to choose one SEL competency to focus on for your context. Review the definition and ML Considerations for the SEL competency. Collaborate with colleagues (e.g., administrators, counselors, ELD teachers) to discuss connections you see with MLs in your context. Review the educator actions, adding notes about implementation in your context. Determine next steps in fostering access to the SEL competency for MLs in your context.
