How do we learn social and emotional skills?

A little bit of neuroscience! If you are wearing a watch, take it off and place it on the other wrist…..

How do we learn social, emotional and behavioural skills? Our cortex starts out with no connections By trial and error we learn effective ways to bring about results These leave ‘neural pathways’ or ‘networks’ Those that are repeated grow stronger and more efficient, those that are not used wither and die The brain constantly searches for the most efficient way to do achieve results, so will always use the strongest pathways…

The neuroscience of behaviour change

Why an explicit curriculum alone is not enough… I learn that when someone is in my way I hit them. This is successful in getting them to move out of my way. The next time someone is in my way I repeat the behaviour. I continue to repeat the behaviour. Someone tells me that it is wrong to hit someone to make them get out the way. They teach me a new strategy – to ask them to move out of the way. I continue to use my previous behaviour, unless I am reminded and supported in using the new behaviour. With support, I begin to use the new behaviour more.. Gradually the new behaviour becomes my ‘default’ response, and the old behaviour dies away.

How are we doing for time?

Now what about that watch?

The 20/80 rule What does the research say? SEAL must be taught (20%) …. Direct and focused learning opportunities to develop knowledge, understanding and skills

..and caught (80%) A whole school approach to creating a positive emotional environment in which children feel safe to try out new ways of thinking/behaving. Adult modelling and scaffolding SEAL skills reinforced across the curriculum; Whole school reinforcement e.g. Posters/ Certificates/ Teacher focus Staff development and well-being Lessons which develop SEL and promote EHWB
