Everyday Speech and Panorama Education Partner to Provide Interactive Resources for Social Skills

Each year, thousands of educators trust Everyday Speech to equip them with the tools and strategies they need to nurture the fundamental social skills that help guide every student towards a healthier, happier, and more fulfilling future.

Now, practitioners can explore a set of research-backed lessons for building social skills from Everyday Speech on Playbook, Panorama Education’s online professional learning library of strategies for creating a positive school climate and implementing life skills in K-12 classrooms. These new resources from Everyday Speech provide educators with video modeling, interactive activities, and engaging games to help students build social skills.

Everyday Speech is a leading provider of social skills materials for speech therapists, special educators, and diverse learning professionals. The videos, games, and worksheets from Everyday Speech provide educators with everything they need to teach social skills one-on-one, in small groups, or across an entire school or district.

The activities from Everyday Speech on Playbook align directly with these Panorama student survey topics:

• Emotion Regulation
• Growth Mindset
• School and Classroom Climate
• Self-Awareness
• Self-Efficacy
• Self-Management
• Social Awareness
• Teacher-Student Relationships

For example, the activity “Developing Positive Self-Esteem” provides students with tools and techniques that they can apply in their own lives to help them develop confidence, practice positive self-talk, and adopt a growth mindset.

For educators thinking about how to best nurture a growth mindset with their younger learners, “Setting Goals” is an activity that helps students both self-assess areas for improvement as well as set goals to strengthen those areas. Teachers guide the discussion and assist using within-video exercises, using their keen knowledge of each student’s unique needs and skills to facilitate an engaging learning experience.

Panorama’s Playbook connects teachers, counselors, and school leaders with easy-to-implement resources, activities, and research related to empathy, sense of belonging, teacher-student relationships, family engagement, and more. Teachers explore Panorama's Playbook when they are looking to take action on their Panorama student survey data on school climate and social skills.
