Our books are made with a socio-emotional approach, a separate subject, or included within different academic disciplines. Various research has shown that social-emotional skills are crucial for children to be successful, both socially and academically. Early socio-emotional skills are related to the social, emotional, academic, and professional ability that we are later in life. Also, we know that children learn through play, so within each program area, students will have playful activities related to the subject they are studying.
