We all have had students who have experienced trauma. While we can’t control the negative effects of trauma on the brain, we can heal trauma done to students' brains! Knowing that students spend half of their waking hours at school, we can offer a calm, clear, structured environment to support brain recovery and growth. In this session, we will explore strategies for connecting, coping, and calming for our most difficult students. We will also explore tips and tricks for teacher wellness as we navigate stress from secondary trauma.
