⭐ How I Will Love You Different Supports SEL in Schools

I Will Love You Different is more than a story—it is a developmentally aligned SEL resource designed to help children build emotional awareness, confidence, empathy, and strong interpersonal skills. Rooted in CASEL’s five core SEL competencies, this book offers teachers and counselors an accessible, culturally responsive tool for daily instruction, morning meetings, small-group intervention, and whole-class read-alouds.

⭐ SEL Competency Alignment

1. Self-Awareness

The book encourages children to reflect on their identity, strengths, and unique qualities.
Students learn to say:

• “I am different on purpose.”

• “I am valued for who I am.”

This supports positive self-belief, self-confidence, and recognition of personal emotions.

2. Self-Management

The story models emotional safety and calm, which helps children:

• Understand what they need to feel regulated

• Build coping skills

• Recognize triggers and soothing strategies

The bonus worksheets further reinforce reflection and self-regulation.

3. Social Awareness

Students learn empathy by seeing how love can be expressed differently for each person.
Themes include:

• Respecting differences

• Understanding others’ needs

• Seeing diversity as a strength

This supports inclusive classroom culture and reduces bullying behaviors.

4. Relationship Skills

The book models healthy communication, trust, and connection.
Children learn:

• “My voice matters.”

• “I can express my needs.”

• “Families and friendships grow through understanding.”

These lessons directly support positive peer relationships.

5. Responsible Decision-Making

By teaching emotional insight and compassion, the story helps children make thoughtful, values-driven decisions.
Students begin to ask:

• “What does kindness look like for me and others?”

• “How can I show love in different ways?”

This aligns with classroom expectations and character education goals.
