September Content Updates: What’s New This Month?

The earlier we can support our early learners with social-emotional learning the better!

As you know, this isn’t always easy. Early learners may struggle with reading, paying attention, and comprehending materials created for older audiences. That’s why we’ve released hundreds of new social communication and SEL materials geared specifically toward preschool and kindergarten students.

Our new preschool and kindergarten SEL materials include visual cues to support non-readers, age-appropriate actors, and engaging, animated characters. We’ve included some examples below. 

We hope these new releases will help you start your new school year off strong!
