Engage Students in Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) with Technology!
Help students build interpersonal, decision-making, leadership, and collaborative skills.
Use these examples of projects created by students to inspire digital project work that supports social-emotional learning.
Start simple
Wixie includes a folder filled with templates you can use for to help students explore emotions, make decisions, and build collaborative skills.
Goal Setting
If you set goals, you are more likely to achieve them. Students can use templates in Wixie to set goals, including SMART goals, for the school year, their education, and benchmarks necessary for achieving their career dreams.
Lesson Plan - SMART Goals
Wixie Goal Setting choice board
My Future
What would a student want a book about their life to contain? Rather than tackle writing an entire book, ask your students to create a book cover design for the story of their life.
ABC books
Choose a topic such as teamwork, bullying, or friendship and have students work together to create an ABC book to share with younger students.

What is Important to Me?
Our introductory art lesson was to draw something that is important to you using Wixie as the tool. Rosalie in fourth grade did this drawing of her dog. She did a wonderful job observing the pose of her dog in her drawing. @BCPS_VLP @RTwentey @cgibson5bcps @sfisherBCPS pic.twitter.com/RW4E1cDFlY
