Social-Emotional Learning: Social Awareness

Understanding and expressing gratitude is an important part of or Social Awareness. Gratitude is really about connections and being ready to extend and return kindness. 

It is the skill of pausing to notice what we have.

I love trees - all kind of trees. The evergreens, like cedars and pines, but also deciduous trees who survive their winters by dropping their leaves. In this busy time of the year (only 6 days until Winter Solstice!) the barren trees remind me of their resilience and survival strategy: digging their roots deep into the ground.

Gratitude helps me to feel grounded. How about you?
