Teaching Kids to Thrive explores the key elements of learning that
go far beyond subject matter knowledge and academic skill
measurement. The book covers what it takes to help students --all
students-- move beyond merely coping and surviving. The authors aim
to teach students how to thrive and how to navigate successfully
whatever the future holds for them. The authors explore teaching
social-emotional learning (SEL) skills as dispositions toward
lifelong success. After reading this book, teachers will be more
able to: Use mindfulness strategies to help students focus and
access their inner strengths. Help students build upon their
existing ability to self-regulate and motivate themselves. Guide
students in developing their growth mindsets so they can visualize
their goals and make plans to achieve them. Cultivate an attitude
and culture of perseverance in the classroom. Incorporate
resilience practices into everyday lesson planning and
interactions. Clarify what it means to be a responsible community
member and help students internalize how they can be responsible
students and citizens. Demonstrate how honesty and integrity can
help build stronger relationships and foster a community of people
who support one another. Rethink their capacity for empathy and
employ new tools and techniques for expressing empathy to students
and colleagues. Formulate an ethos of everyday gratitude so that
students, regardless of their socioeconomic status, learn to honor
the gifts they have and appreciate the pluses in their lives. Use
the strategies, tips, guidelines, stories, reflections, and
inspiration from this book to ensure that students excel not only
in their academic skills, but also in their Thrive skills, which
lay the foundation for a healthy, whole, centered, and grounded
young adulthood.
