Welcome to Social and Emotional Development

At Social and Emotional Development, we are dedicated to helping teachers foster the growth of social and emotional skills in infants, early childhood and adolescents.  Social emotional strategies for teachers in infancy to foster growth in the classroom are, constant interaction and talking to the infants.  Making dramatic faces, voices and eye contact can enhance development for babies.    For early childhood, cooperative learning activities and positive classroom environment can foster social emotional growth.  In adolescents, by giving effective praise, and modeling appropriate behaviors teachers can  model and teach proper social emotional development.
