Common Essential Learnings

Saskatchewan Education (1988) promotes the enhancement of instruction and student
learning through the Common Essential Learnings (CEL'S). The CEL'S encourage the
understanding of values, skills and processes both in and outside of the classroom. Each
of the following areas are represented in our units to assist the teacher-student
relationship. CEL'S include the following:

Communication
Critical and Creative Thinking
Personal Social Values and Skills
Independent Learning
Numeracy
Technological Literacy


For additional information about the CEL'S, check:
