Fall Into Growth a Social Emotional Learning Workbook for Teens - Paperback

by Richard Bass (Author)

Fall Into Growth is a social-emotional learning workbook written specifically for teenagers navigating the demands of the fall semester. Created by special education teacher and author Richard Bass, it offers 35 guided exercises across the five core competencies of social-emotional learning: self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making.

Unlike general teen workbooks, every exercise in this volume is built around the unique challenges of the fall season, including the back-to-school transition, academic and performance pressure, seasonal mood changes brought on by shorter days, shifting friendships, family dynamics under academic stress, and the high-stakes decisions that shape an entire school year. Each exercise includes reflective writing space, practical tools, and structured activities designed to be completed at the teen's own pace.

Written in an honest, direct, and respectful tone, Fall Into Growth avoids condescension and meets young readers as capable individuals. It is an ideal resource for teens ages 13 to 19, as well as for parents, educators, school counselors, and mental health professionals seeking an evidence-based supplemental tool.

Fall Into Growth is the third title in the seasonal Into Growth series for teens, following Spring Into Growth and Summer Into Growth. Together, the series provides a full year of structured social-emotional learning and self-reflection.
