Responsive Classroom
Responsive Classroom, offered by the Center for Responsive Schools, provides a teaching practices approach to social-emotional learning (SEL). provides strategies for working with bias. This includes training offerings where educators examine developmental characteristics and are challenged to address potential biases through this examination. Supporting SEL in multiple settings is the foundation of the Center for Responsive School’s approach, as evidenced by Responsive Classroom guiding principles, such as “How we work together as adults to create a safe, joyful, and inclusive school environment is as important as our individual contribution and competence” and “Partnering with families—knowing them and valuing their contributions—is as important as knowing the children we teach.”
