Description
Transforming Discipline in Schools with Restorative Practices This playbook provides educators with practical tools to create a safe and accepting school climate. It outlines a set of practices designed to teach prosocial behaviors based on strong relationships and a commitment to the well-being of others. The authors offer reflection prompts, examples, and strategies for implementing restorative practices around key concepts such as building agency and identity, establishing teacher credibility, and fostering positive relationships. By becoming adept in the skillful use of restorative practices, educators can foster equitable discipline that reduces exclusion and promotes a positive academic and social-emotional learning environment. The Restorative Practices Playbook offers practical guidance for creating restorative conversations, circles, and conferences to resolve problems and promote healing.
