Webinar: SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL LEARNING: THE FOUNDATION FOR LIFELONG SUCCESS
BELRAG invites you to an informative webinar, in partnership with the Rotary Action Group on Mental Health, on social-emotional learning. The webinar will be presented by Dr. Rita Aggarwal, Consulting Psychologist and Chair of the RAG on Mental Health. This presentation will emphasize the importance of emotional literacy for children as young as the primary school age group and will highlight different types of emotional dynamics experienced by the very young children and the ways in which they discover and handle different ways of expressing their emotions. An understanding of this complex phenomena leads to an improvement in the social interaction, learning trajectories, and behavioral patterns among children.
