Life Skills
Helping Middle and High School Students In Developing Life Skills
Self-awareness, impulse control, empathy, teamwork, and responsible decision-making are just some of the social emotional skills that help students succeed in and out of school. Unfortunately, many students aren’t developing them. What if there was a straightforward way to teach students empathy and encourage emotional development? That’s why we created Habitudes for Developing Life Skills to teach social skills to middle and high school youths.
