Positive Guidance & Social-Emotional Learning Activity

Use this reusable daily checklist to plan, notice, and reflect on practices that help children feel secure and grow socially and emotionally. It guides educators through predictable routines, clear expectations, attentive supervision, respectful modeling, empathetic listening, and specific positive encouragement. Record the date and classroom or group, check off practices used, and write a brief reflection about a successful interaction. Keep it handy during daily planning or reflection to strengthen supportive interactions with children.
