These 2nd grade social-emotional worksheets tackle the skills that matter as school gets harder and friendships more complex: a growth mindset, empathy, speaking up with I-messages, planning ways to handle stress and being a good teammate.

Each sheet names its CASEL competency and asks the child to write, so it doubles as writing practice.
