At Talentoto, The International Play School, we believe that play is not just about fun and games; it's a powerful tool for fostering Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) in young children.
What is SEL?
SEL refers to the process of acquiring and applying the knowledge, attitudes, and skills necessary to understand and manage emotions, set healthy goals, build positive relationships, and make responsible decisions.
Why is SEL important?
Strong SEL skills are essential for children's success not only in school but also throughout their lives. They enable children to:
- Develop self-awareness: Recognize their emotions, strengths, and weaknesses.
- Manage their emotions: Express their feelings in healthy ways and cope with stress effectively.
- Build positive relationships: Communicate effectively, empathize with others, and work cooperatively.
- Make responsible decisions: Consider the consequences of their actions and make choices that benefit themselves and others.
How does play promote SEL at Talentoto?
At Talentoto, we create a stimulating and supportive play environment where children can:
- Engage in imaginative and dramatic play: This allows them to explore different roles, express their emotions, and develop empathy for others.
- Participate in cooperative games and activities: These experiences teach them how to take turns, share, negotiate, and resolve conflicts peacefully.
- Build friendships and social connections: Through play with peers, children learn valuable communication skills, develop a sense of belonging, and practice building healthy relationships.
- Express themselves creatively: This fosters self-confidence, problem-solving skills, and resilience.
Beyond the Classroom:
We believe that SEL extends beyond the classroom walls. We partner with parents to provide resources and guidance on how to support their child's social-emotional development at home. This collaboration fosters consistency and reinforces the learning happening at Talentoto.
