Illu strated by Nancy Sosna Bohm   Music and art can help us feel and express deep emotions. We can be happy or sad, but that is only the beginning. This beautiful book explores the powerful link between art, music, and emotion, and is ideal for deepening Social Emotional Learning (SEL) and building a fuller emotional vocabulary. Built on the principles of SEL, each page of The ABCs of My Feelings and Music offers an emotion word in a piece of colorful artwork, one for each letter of the alphabet. Below each illustration are three classical music suggestions to listen to while observing the art. Use the provided questions and a link to playlists to help unpack what children are seeing and feeling. The questions can also jumpstart meaningful discussions about how art and music can affect and help us express our emotions. This book is for children as well as teachers, parents, social workers, counselors, music therapists—anyone who works with children and understands the power of art and music. We hope this book helps you and your children/students expand their emotional vocabulary, have meaningful discussions about emotions, and think more deeply about how music and art makes us feel!

A Guide for Developing Teacher SEL Competencies. Composed by Michelle McConkey & Scott N. Edgar. Social Emotional Learning. Music Education. 96 pages. GIA Publications #10850. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-10850).

ISBN 9781622777266.

Befo re music teachers can effectively implement Social Emotional Learning (SEL) with students in the classroom, they must first develop their own SEL skills and tend to their personal well-being. This practical guide takes teachers through thirteen sequential units designed to hone important self-care and SEL skills, such as regulating emotions, resolving conflict, managing stress, and building positive relationships. Each unit is structured around the three core pillars of SEL—Identity, Belonging, and Agency—and offers connections for both pre-service and in-service music teachers that guide them through a series of thought-provoking exercises to strengthen their skills, as well as space to discover, reflect, journal, draw, and commit to growth. An essential resource for current or future music teachers, and an ideal supplement for collegiate music education courses, this resource can be used again and again, year after year, to guide teachers on their journey to SEL competency and personal well-being. Michelle S. McConkey is Associate Professor of Music Education at California State University in Chico, California. She received her doctoral degree in music education from Arizona State University and is an active clinician, presenting workshops and research sessions at state, national, and international music education conferences.

Dr. Edgar also serves as Director of Practice and Research for the Center for Arts Education and Social Emotional Learning (www.artsedsel.org).
