I was not aware that Sesame Street had videos that looked at social-emotional learning until I stumbled on this one that looks at the power of the word yet. Although designed for younger children I suspect many middle and high school students would be engaged (since many watched Sesame Street as youngsters). This could be useful if you work with students on growth mindset and fixed mindset. |

This is an interesting read. Sesame Street was one of the first shows to bring on a character who is diagnosed with Autism. Throughout all of this COVID crazziness this show has not only knocked down the wall of stereotypes but it helps kids with autism deal with the issue of mask wearing during covid.Â
