Build Social-Emotional Wellness in EAL Learners Using the Skills for Success Framework
Based on our session at ATEAL 2026, this toolkit provides a practical framework for moving beyond task-focused language instruction toward a holistic, person-centered approach. Inside, you will find a curated collection of planning frameworks, student-facing reflection tools, and comprehensive reference maps that connect the five social-emotional Skills for Success—Problem Solving, Communication, Adaptability, Collaboration, and Creativity—to real-world demands. You will leave with a clear, four-step process for designing lessons that validate your students' lived experiences while equipping them with the specific language needed to navigate complex Canadian systems with dignity and confidence.
