The Princeton-Blairstown Center (PBC) is offering a variety of free resources intended to improve students’ social-emotional skills and environmental literacy at a time when there are sustained, significant interruptions to the “normal” patterns of teaching and learning around the world due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Resources offered include a new lesson plan designed each week for teachers, coaches, advisory group leaders or other educators. Each lesson plan outlines themed activities that target specific social emotional learning (SEL) competencies. Additionally, the PBC Program staff creates short, interactive video segments for students released each Monday, Wednesday and Friday via the PBC Facebook Page, and later archived to the PBC website. Virtual learning videos feature an environmental exploration or activity, or model a mindfulness/SEL exercise. Both the weekly lessons and the virtual learning videos can be accessed via princetonblairstown.org/pbcathome.
