Relationship Skills are… 

Relationship skills are an important component of Social Emotional Learning. Relationship skills pertain to “the ability to establish and maintain healthy and rewarding relationships with diverse individuals and groups.” To demonstrate appropriate relationship skills, students must learn to:

• Listen well: Active listening depends on the ability to make an effort to hear and comprehend what another person is saying and respond appropriately. Some skills involved in active listening include appropriate eye contact, regulating thoughts to limit distractions, utilising facial expressions, and providing oral responses.
• Cooperate with others: When students cooperate, they each become active members working toward a common goal. Cooperation requires that students be flexible, have an awareness of self and others, take turns, respect each other’s thoughts and opinions, listen well, and practice effective problem-solving.
• Resist inappropriate social pressure: Strong self-management skills can help students to communicate and commit to their decision not to engage in unwanted and unsafe behavior. 
• Negotiate conflict constructively: In order to resolve an issue in a relationship, students must know how to calmly discuss the problem, brainstorm solutions, and come to an appropriate decision.
• Seek and offer help when needed: Students should be encouraged to check their understanding in both academic and social situations. If students hit a roadblock while working to achieve a goal, they need to know how and when to ask for help.
