Elise Wullf, M. Ed.-SEL Resources

In Elise Wulff’s Breaking Down Inclusion; Building Up Students presentation to our SEPAC community, she suggested the following resources.

Curriculum

MindUp  – “This research-based curriculum features 15 lessons that use the latest information about the brain to dramatically improve behavior and learning for all students.”

BrainWise – “A proven, evidence-based social and emotional learning program for teaching critical thinking and decision making skills to children.”

Books
Neurocomic: A Comic About the Brain – Supported by the Wellcome Trust, this debut graphic novel by Dr. Matteo Farinella and Dr.Hana Ros is a journey through the human brain: a place of neuron forests, memory caves and castles of deception. Along the way, you’ll encounter Boschean beasts, giant squid, guitar-playing sea slugs and the great pioneers of Neuroscience.

Student Brain Activity
The Brain Hat – The stylish, adorable, and educational “world-famous ‘Brain Hat‘” helps students better understand how their brains sit in their heads. This easy to use activity also paves the way for a discussion on the function of each lobe of the brain.
