New Episode of Literacy Matters: Breaking the Pyramid Myth: Rethinking MTSS for Reading Growth    Watch Now

I see social emotional learning is part of A–Z for Mat Man and Me. What does that mean?

Mat Man and Me builds SEL skills like empathy, problem solving, and kindness through reading and discussion activities.

Social emotional learning is woven into the Student Letter Books and Meaning Making lessons as children read, think, talk, and write/draw about five key social emotional learning habits which include problem solving, understanding feelings, persistence, cooperation, and kindness. The goal of our social emotional learning opportunities is to help students figure out feelings and broaden understanding of the characters in the story through book prompt conversations.
