Fun to hear a lesson from my In Focus #SEL curriculum being taught. It's so important to help students discover their strengths, it builds mental health.
We’re Discovering Strengths with @teaching_heart1 In Focus Curriculum using the #tiktok trend “Put a Finger Down”. It’s been so fun and interesting to identify each others strengths and talk about how we can accept each other even if we learn differently! ❤️
