Hope Rising (405-676-4140) has issued its revised Social Emotional Learning (SEL) learning curriculum for the new school year.
Norman,United States - October 3, 2022 /PressCable/ —
The non-profit organization has updated its pre-K-12 ‘My Best Me’ curriculum based on the tenets of Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and the science of hope. The course of study is designed to contribute to the mental health and well-being of students while improving their social and emotional competencies.

Hope Rising’s revised SEL curriculum allows children to develop and manage their sense of identity and place within a caring and nurturing community. By fostering an environment of respect and trust between teachers and students, SEL encourages young people to make better life decisions and to become meaningful contributors to their community.
The organization believes that the science of hope, pioneered by the University of Oklahoma’s Dr. Chan Hellman and a member of the company’s board of directors, can be combined with SEL to yield more improved outcomes for students. Studies have shown that hope – the belief in a better tomorrow – can be learned and that children with higher hope scores have better grades, attendance, and graduation rates.
Moreover, more and more students are being exposed to trauma and stress in classrooms around the country, according to educators. Accordingly, students struggle both academically and emotionally. The pandemic and the spate of school shootings nationwide have only exacerbated the problem – as young students feel more isolated and disconnected from both their peers and their mentors.
The disruptions in routines and social isolation of children can have an impact on their mental health later in life and be linked to anxiety and depression. A number of studies show an increase in children’s mental health needs following social isolation due to the pandemic, especially among kids who had traumatic/adverse childhood experiences.
Hope Rising’s curriculum gives educators the tools and resources they need to blunt the impact of trauma and promote student success. It is designed to be taught in an hour every week, but it can also be divided into more frequent, shorter sessions. Since lessons are non-sequential, teachers have the freedom to pair them with other subjects and current events. The texts are all interactive, with digital activities and multimedia options.
“Our original approach to SEL – with grade and age-appropriate techniques and lesson plans – helps pupils develop their psycho-social abilities and cultivates adaptive behavior,” said an organization spokesperson. “Perhaps most importantly, we want to help build self-confidence and the power of resiliency in the face of life’s challenges.”
