Second Step Curriculum
Second Step is an evidenced-based, socio-emotional curriculum to support our students in TK through 8th grade. The Second Step curriculum supports students in building social-emotional skills such as responsible decision-making, working together to solve problems, managing strong emotions, setting goals, and getting along with others. These skills can help children succeed academically and socially. All CVUSD students in grades TK through 8th grade have access to this curriculum through teacher-delivered classroom lessons.

- Free Social-Emotional Learning Activities: There are a number of Second Step activities freely available online for children ages 5–13. Many of these are adaptable for remote learning or for families to do at home with their children.
- Second Step Social-Emotional Passport: The Second Step SEL Passport is a great SEL reinforcement activity for students to do at home. Integrate this activity into your remote-learning plan or share it with families as a fun resource.
- The Imagine Neighborhood: This new podcast for families is designed to help children and grown-ups practice their social-emotional skills. Each episode tells a story that’s amazing, fantastical, and maybe a little bananas, while it tackles the big feelings that come with growing up.
- Mind Yeti: Fifteen of our mindfulness program sessions are now available for anyone to use, no experience necessary! Designed for educators and families to do alongside children, or for older children to do on their own, Mind Yeti provides a great way for everyone to practice mindfulness during this difficult time.
- Little Children, Big Challenges: Committee for Children and Sesame Street have partnered to create a collection of resources for young children facing significant challenges. These materials, aimed at building children’s resilience, may be useful for educators and families.
- Captain Compassion: Here, children can find games, comics, and activities they can do on their own, or with their families, to learn about how they can help stop bullying.
- Hot Chocolate Talk: A resource to help families talk with their children about child sexual abuse. Families may be spending a lot more time together during school closures, which makes this an opportune time to have these difficult but very important conversations.
- ParenTeen Connect: For families with older children, this resource provides an online experience they can share together. It’s loaded with videos, resources, and useful advice to help teens and the adults in their lives address hot-button topics.
- SEL Posters: Put up a few visual reminders to help your kids name their feelings and learn how to manage them, too!
