Abstract
The purpose of this action research study was to determine the impact a social-emotional learning curriculum has on students. The researcher used Fly Five as the SEL curriculum to see if instruction after 1 full year had an impact on students’ social-emotional learning skills. The findings of this action research study showed no significant growth in students’ social-emotional skills. The study did show growth in certain areas of SEL but not in all. The research was conducted to impact future classroom practices when it comes to helping students develop social and emotional skills and help schools make decisions on what practices are best for implementing SEL interventions.
