A Social Emotional Literacy Curriculum for Adolescents contains vignettes about real- life issues that challenge today's adolescent student. The design and content of the curriculum provide a means for teachers and group leaders to engage students in real life issues that may impact their lives. There are seventy vignettes that are taken from actual situations that arise in school and represent challenges in decision making that many students will encounter. The vignettes are open-ended and there are three components to each lesson. Students participate in a pre-reading discussion to front-load the issue raised in the vignetter. Then a reading. of the vignette follows. There are a set of discussion questions that follow where students have make inferences and cite evidence from the vignetter to support their conclusions. The literacy component is fused with the issue on which the vignette is based to promote more connection and discussion. Each lesson is a black line master that is easily duplicated and a student answer sheet is provided in the front matter of the text.
