Your March SEL Calendar is Here!
Updated: Nov 11, 2022
Celebrate Art, Music and Empowerment during Youth Arts & Women's History Month with SEL Activities!
March is here, and to celebrate, we are excited to showcase activities that involve arts education as well as provide fun facts about women who were leaders in the Arts. Youth Art Month was founded in 1961 by the Art & Creative Materials Institute, Inc. (ACMI), in cooperation with the National Art Education Association. Its goal was to "emphasize the value of participating in art for all children." This month, we are also celebrating Women's History Month to honor the generations of trailblazing women and girls who have helped shape our world - and share about their inspiring accomplishments.
Help your students become more creative and connected with another Kikori Calendar month of SEL activities!

What are the Kikori daily themes?
Each day, the March SEL Calendar provides you with an activity focused on the following daily Kikori themes:
Mindful Monday activities include meditations, visualizations and mindfulness
Together Tuesday activities involve team building and initiatives that build trust
Wellness Wednesday activities focus on ways to build physical and emotional health
Thoughtful Thursday activities use problem solving and reflection to help grow inward
Fun Friday activities are energizing activities that reinforce the importance of joy
How does Kikori ensure these activities build social emotional skills like self-awareness and relationship skills? Each activity provides you with instructions that follow the experiential learning cycle. This means the activities help youth actively engage and then provides reflection questions related to the activity.
These questions help youth reflect and build self- and social-awareness (what happened during the activity?), make meaningful connections to their own lives (how did what happened during the activity connect to other experiences?), and engage in personal growth (what are they going to take from this activity into their lives?)
And the National Day Activities?
Here at Kikori, we think it's important to educate our students on important days of the year and learn what they stand for. To make team building in the classroom or at youth development programs MEANINGFUL, we've included a special National Holiday for every day in March and a corresponding team building activity. We did our homework to find the best days for kids to celebrate!
