May 1st- May 5th

Every chapter in this book is so relevant to our student body and staff.  I am giving you snip-its of the Chapters... hoping it catches your attention and gets you to read the whole chapter.  If you have not had a chance to read it thoroughly ..please do this summer. It can be  beneficial not only in your professional life  but your  personal life also:)

Chapter 9  in Fostering Resilient Learners -  Names, Labels, and Need for Control..
One Quote.."Fixating on problems may offer validation for how hard our jobs are, but it leaves us short of identifying all our students'--- and our own--- strengths."

What do we control? Do we  control whether the students in our classroom got a good night sleep? Do we control whether they fought with a parent or sibling before school?  Can we "control" how a student responds to a situation?  When students are trying to stay regulated, often without helpful tools, their behavior is not under our control.  WE CAN INFLUENCE the situation dramatically.  We can provide an environment that is safe and predictable.  We can provide a caring, trusting relationship. And this is what trauma- affected students need from us.
