Description
Supporting students who experience trauma in the classroom and beyond is now more crucial than ever. Studies show that nearly half of children have experienced trauma, which can lead to challenging behaviour, depression, anxiety, and long-term physical and mental health issues. This practical guide provides educators with evidence-based tools and techniques to help alleviate the effects of trauma on students. Written by experts in the field, it covers detailed interventions such as mindfulness, journaling, restorative justice, and more. The book also offers strategies for preparing classrooms and schools to support students who have experienced adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). With its companion website featuring discussion points, recommended videos, and additional resources, this how-to guide equips educators with the skills and knowledge needed to better serve students who need their help most.
