A Pennsylvania school district <\/a>may incorporate “feelings” into its math curriculum.<\/p>\n

Littlestown Area School District proposed an elementary math curriculum<\/a> that could integrate social-emotional learning into its curriculum.<\/p>\n

“This board needs to decide if they want to make social and emotional learning a part of our math curriculum. I do not believe it belongs in the math classes,” said board member Jeanne Ewen at a board meeting on February 13.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Some of the questions inside the math workbook ask, \u2018Are you understanding how other people feel?\u2019 What does this have to do with teaching math?”<\/p>\n

According to a global nonprofit called the Committee For Children, social\u2013emotional learning is an educational method that aims to help people develop the self-awareness, self-control and interpersonal skills that are needed for everyday life.<\/p>\n

“This is just re-packaged critical race theory is what this is,” Board member Nicki Kenney said.<\/p>\n

The “Reveal Math” program “explores mathematics through a flexible lesson design,” a “Program Overview” reads for kindergartners through fifth-graders.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, it reads that the program will “provide access to rigorous instruction with embedded teacher support and scaffolds” which include lesson models and routines, social-emotional learning, language and English learner supports, and fluency.<\/p>\n

The book prompts the reader to “support the whole child with social and emotional learning integration.”<\/p>\n

“Every lesson integrates a social and emotional learning objective along with the math and language objectives of the lesson, addressing the CASEL Social and Emotional Learning competencies throughout each grade level.”<\/p>\n

The Reviewers Guide Unit 2 section of the textbook prompts students to “Be curious.”<\/p>\n

“Math is \u2026 mindset. How does identifying your feelings and emotions help you?”<\/p>\n

It goes on to say that the Social and Emotional Learning objective is introduced in the Be Curious moment with the Math is \u2026 mindset prompt. Teachers have instructional support <\/a>to connect the Social and Emotional focus to the content objective for the day.”<\/p>\n

The social-emotional learning objective is to enable students to collaborate with peers to complete a task.<\/p>\n

LASD board members were determining whether social-emotional learning should be a part of teaching math.<\/p>\n

“As an elementary school teacher, you\u2019re also trying to teach social skills,” she said, recalling her early education as a kindergartener in the early \u201970s. “You were taught social skills as well, back in the day. SEL is not all critical race theory. It\u2019s not.”<\/p>\n

A parent named Janell Ressler<\/a> questioned the program during the public comment portion of the meeting.<\/p>\n

“Why do students need to incorporate their feelings into solving math problems?” Ressler asked.<\/p>\n

“Elementary students in this district need to be taught math in their math class, not equity and social discourse. This has nothing to do with solving math problems,” Ressler said.<\/p>\n

Board vice-president Yancy Unger<\/a> said that more research on this particular math program was needed.<\/p>\n

The program will be further discussed and demonstrated at the Curriculum, Co-Curriculum, & Policy Committee on March 7 at 5 p.m.<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital reached out to LASD for a comment, but they did not immediately respond.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
