Summary Note |
In this book the authors explore the issue of childhood trauma and its effect on learning and teaching. It is designed to help teachers cultivate a trauma-sensitive learning environment for students across all content areas, grade levels, and educational settings. The book includes strategies to help: understand what trauma is and how it hinders the learning, motivation, and success of all students in the classroom; build strong relationships and create a safe space to enable students to learn at high levels; adopt a strengths-based approach that leads you to recalibrate how you view destructive student behaviors and to perceive what students need to break negative cycles; and head off frustration and burnout with essential self-care techniques that will help you and your students flourish. Each chapter also includes questions and exercises to encourage reflection and extension of the ideas in this book. [Publisher website, ed] |
