Get ready for an unforgettable journey deep into one of the most fascinating and vibrant ecosystems on Earth—the Colombian Andes and Amazon Rainforest! Over the next few weeks, we will embark on an adventure to explore hidden worlds teeming with life, where extraordinary creatures will help us uncover the mysteries of our own inner world. Much like the rainforest itself—full of interconnected life, rhythm, and balance— our emotions, thoughts, and senses work together to shape our experiences. Through playful exploration, mindful discovery, and deep connection to nature, we will learn to understand ourselves and the world around us in a whole new way.
Social Emotional Lessons included in the Rainforest Adventure: In 5th and 6th grade, students are at a critical stage of emotional and social development as they navigate increased independence, peer relationships, and self-awareness. Key social-emotional learning (SEL) lessons at this stage should focus on self-regulation, empathy, responsible decision-making, and resilience. Here are some core innerU socio-emotional skills for 5th and 6th graders:
By reinforcing these SEL lessons, 5 or 6th graders can develop the emotional intelligence and interpersonal skills they need to thrive in school and beyond. So, take a deep breath, feel the energy of the rainforest around you, and get ready to dive into an adventure that will transform the way you see yourself and the world. Let’s begin our journey together!
