| Abstract: | This article outlines a series of mini-lessons designed to integrate interactive read-alouds, arts-engaged activities, and social-emotional learning (SEL) themes to support literacy development and socioemotional well-being in students. Each lesson pairs a carefully selected anchor text with a creative arts activity and online resources, aiming to foster engagement and holistic growth. SEL competencies such as identity exploration, impulse control, managing strong emotions, and responsible decision-making are emphasized. Practical strategies and implementation steps are provided to assist educators in integrating these approaches into their curriculum, promoting equity and accessibility while nurturing a positive classroom culture.
