The Social Institute Launches New Offline Lessons for K-2 to Build Foundation for Thoughtful Decision-Making
BUSINESS WIRE)-- The Social Institute announced today the launch of its new Kindergarten through 2nd grade offline lessons, expanding its pioneering modern life skills education to empower all K-12 students at schools and districts. 'As the conversation grows around how technology should be used in schools, having a curriculum that helps educators teach the skills that students will need to navigate this topic is essential,' says Dr. Jessica Anderson, school and clinical psychologist. The new screen-free lessons are designed to build a foundation for treating others with kindness, making good choices, and handling situations in respectful ways, effectively equipping young students for future success, both online and offline. This expansion comes as educators nationwide recognize the critical need to start essential skill-building at earlier ages. The new K-2 lessons focus on developing foundational skills like empathy, emotional regulation, and decision-making through hands-on, engaging activities that require no screen time or technology. 'As the conversation grows around how technology should be used in schools, having a curriculum that helps educators teach the skills that students will need to navigate this topic is essential,' says Dr. Jessica Anderson, licensed school and clinical psychologist. The developmentally appropriate lessons address the growing demand from elementary schools seeking to proactively equip their youngest students with modern life skills. The #WinAtSocial K–2 lessons are completely offline. These screen-free, hands-on experiences are designed specifically for younger learners, who benefit most from active, play-based learning on topics like balancing their time spent on YouTube versus playing outside with friends. "K-2 is such a formative time when students are like sponges, absorbing everything around them," said Laura Tierney, Founder and CEO of The Social Institute. "By starting with these foundational skills early, we're setting students up for success as they grow and eventually encounter the online world. These offline lessons create the perfect launching pad for our peer-to-peer #WinAtSocial Lessons in later grades that are designed to grow up with students." The new K-2 curriculum has been developed alongside The Social Institute's educator advisory board, internal elementary experts, and K–2 families and is designed to: Build Character from the Start: Lessons build a foundation for thoughtful decision-making that aligns with health, happiness, and future academic success. Fuel Future-Ready Skills: Activities help young students practice skills like decision-making, empathy, and emotional regulation before they start to scroll, click, or play. Inspire Fun, Unplugged Learning: Fuel confidence, creativity, and character with hands-on, screen-free lessons and activities. Connect Classrooms and Familie s: Reinforce key life skills beyond the classroom with take-home activities that build strong connections between students, schools, and families. Equip Busy Educators: Simple, impactful lessons require no extra training – just print and play. The new K-2 Lessons build the groundwork for students who will later participate in The Social Institute's #WinAtSocial Curriculum, which currently serves hundreds of thousands of students in grades 3-12 worldwide. Additionally, The Social Institute announces a brand-new experience for high school students for the 2025-2026 school year. The reimagined #WinAtSocial Lessons for grades 9-12 fuel student voice and choice with agency-building lesson topics and formats to prepare high school students for their futures. As students advance from one grade to the next, the topics evolve to cover what students care about most right now, including how to use A.I. with purpose, manage stress, and stay organized. New features include: Student-Driven Learning: Students are able to choose their next lesson topic and engage with content that reflects their goals, interests, and values. More Face-To-Face Interaction: With 80% of lesson time spent on in-person engagement and only 20% of lessons spent on device use, students foster deeper relationships and critical thinking while reducing screen time. Building Communication Skills: Prepare students for future success with lessons that emphasize eye contact, collaboration, and interpersonal skills that fuel their success beyond screens and their classrooms. Automatic Breakout Groups: Create screen-free moments to help students stay present, minimize distractions, and fully engaged without awkward pauses during class time. 'We see first-hand that students are most engaged when they have a say in their learning, so we're amplifying student agency by empowering them to take ownership of how they learn with 'Choose Your Next Huddle,'' said Tierney. 'During #WinAtSocial Huddles, students spend the majority of each lesson collaborating and problem-solving, not staring at a screen. That means more connection and deeper learning.' The K-2 offline lessons are available for the 2025-2026 school year. Schools and districts interested in implementing a complete K-12 modern life skills approach can combine the new K-2 offline lessons with The Social Institute's established and always evolving suite of solutions for grades 3-12. All lessons are created with the Understanding by Design® framework.

State Democrats roll out endorsements in Virginia
The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee (DLCC) rolled out a slate of new target districts in Virginia ahead of November's House of Delegates elections. The committee is targeting the 82nd, 22nd, 71st and 41st state House districts. Democratic candidate Jessica Anderson is seeking to unseat Anne Ferrell Tata (R) in the 82nd district, while Democrat Elizabeth Guzman is running against state Rep. Ian Lovejoy (R) in the 22nd state House district. In the 71st state House district, Democrat Jessica Anderson is seeking to unseat state Rep. Amanda Batten (R) in the 71st district, while Democrat Lily Franklin is running against incumbent Chris Obenshain (R). The Hill was the first outlet to report on the new slate of target districts. 'These four returning Spotlight candidates are mounting strong challenges against unpopular Republicans who have rubber-stamped Trump's reckless agenda that's tanking the economy and threatening jobs,' said the group's president Heather Williams. State Democrats in Virginia and across the country are holding the line against extremism in Washington. All eyes should be on the commonwealth as competitive campaigns ramp up and voters prepare to hold Republicans accountable for their extremism this November.' Earlier this month, the DLCC announced it was investing seven figures in the battle to keep the Democratic majority in Virginia's House of Delegates. The committee made the announcement in its 'Roadmap to Victory in Virginia' memo, which included its first batch of House of Delegates target races in 2025. The initial target list includes the 21st, 65th, 84th, and 97th House of Delegates races. Additionally, the committee announced it is adding the state's lieutenant governor's race to its target map. The lieutenant governor could play a pivotal role in casting tie-breaking votes in the state Senate, which this year is not on the ballot. Democrats hold a slim 51-49 majority in the state's House of Delegates, giving way for a competitive race for the majority in November. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
