The Senior SEL Program is designed for ages 13-18. It includes extensive curriculum to choose from, high-impact workshops, and a Journal for reinforcing key concepts and bridging with the home environment.
Captains & Poets’ curriculum is directly aligned to CASEL’s 5 competencies which are designed to “educate the heart and inspire the mind.” The Senior SEL Curriculum includes an Introductory Module to set out key concepts and a number of additional modules. Expand the modules below to see the lessons included.
Self-Awareness | Self-Management | Social Awareness | Relationship Skills | Responsible Decision Making
Homeroom and Form Classes are an ideal opportunity to sustain key concepts and competencies from the Captains & Poets program and to integrate well-being and self-awareness into regular routines. This program can be run in parallel with the full curriculum or on its own.
There are a variety of modules available with topics ranging from life skills to mindfulness, self-awareness, character development, and inclusion and belonging. Each lesson includes multiple activities to choose from so that it can be customized to your school schedule, the allotted class time and the needs of the group. Start with one module or create your own custom package to engage students in meaningful ways throughout the term or year!
Mentoring Programs are a great way to establish a Captains & Poets school culture and ignite transformation from students, themselves. Each program is customized to address target themes in your school to support engagement, contribute to a more positive culture, and elevate leadership capabilities in the school. Mentoring Programs can be aligned to our Workshop offerings or implemented separately.
Older students can be trained to deliver aspects of the Captains & Poets program to younger students and to act as role models and mentors to foster connection on the playground, in classrooms, and throughout the school year. Participants are engaged in the planning and design of their mentorship model to inspire a sense of agency and leadership in the school environment.
Kick off with an inspiring talk that sets your implementation up for success and aligns to key messaging. Our Keynote Speakers are experts in our SEL programs for Senior and model authentic self-leadership and the strength that is found in vulnerability. They take an interactive approach to bring key concepts to life in relatable ways and help create a more safe and inclusive space to explore the Captain and Poet in everyone.
The Journal is designed for students ages 12 and up. It is aligned to the lessons and is a great way to keep SEL concepts alive and well and to bridge with the home environment.
The Introductory Book Series, Drawing & Activity Book and Activity Book may also be suitable for some students. They are also wonderful accompaniments for younger siblings at home.
