Archive, Content
Summary
More than 75 empowering and healing classroom activities
Children living with uncertainty and insecurity often have difficulty focusing on learning. They might demonstrate disrespectful or defiant behaviors, act out, or act with aggression. As an educator, you may provide the only stability in their otherwise turbulent world.
Making It Better explains trauma-informed education, an approach that recognizes the impact of traumatic stress on children and its effect on the growing brain, and applies the latest neurological research to teaching methods, disciplinary policies, and interactions to support grieving children.
This book responds to the learning and behavioral needs of children who have experienced traumatic events or toxic stressÃsuch as natural disasters, community violence, or abuse or neglect within the childÃs familial relationsÃand includes a collection of activities and strategies to help children heal and feel empowered.
Distressed children need absolute emotional security and an opportunity to engage in healing activities. With your help, children can begin to build resiliency and find renewed hope for the future.
