It is an undeniable reality of our world. School must be a safe space for all children, but especially those whose home is unsafe or unhealthy, as teachers, we have a pivotal role to play in creating that safe space. There are three core points to creating a trauma-sensitive classroom outlined in Kristin Souers and Pete Hall&#8217;s book on fostering resilient learners: Self Awareness, Relationships, and Belief. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sites.miamioh.edu\/edt431-531\/files\/2020\/04\/image-1-683x1024.png?resize=683%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2895\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sites.miamioh.edu\/exemplary-science-teaching\/files\/2020\/04\/image-1.png?resize=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sites.miamioh.edu\/exemplary-science-teaching\/files\/2020\/04\/image-1.png?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sites.miamioh.edu\/exemplary-science-teaching\/files\/2020\/04\/image-1.png?resize=768%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/sites.miamioh.edu\/exemplary-science-teaching\/files\/2020\/04\/image-1.png?w=907&amp;ssl=1 907w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Self Awareness<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Learn to shine bright- the importance of self care for teachers. | Kelly Hopkinson | TEDxNorwichED\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5O5QIqlDxjg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Souers uses an analogy in the book about wearing cement shoes. Your cement shoes are what keep you from being knocked over by the crashing waves that you encounter inside of the classroom. One way to know what your cement shoes are is by creating a mission statement. This statement should include those things that make you a teacher- your drive, your motives, your passions, and your strengths. In addition to these tools, the video above outlines the importance of teachers practicing self-care. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Relationships<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/-_N4zmSzrJOY\/UunSTQs7kMI\/AAAAAAAAHX4\/6v18XnMiaJE\/s1600\/Create%2Ba%2BRelationship.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"Positively Passionate About Teaching: Build Student -Teacher ...\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Building relationships isn&#8217;t easy, and it can be especially difficult for a student who has ACEs. One way to help shape these relationships is by modeling honesty and vulnerability with students. When students see that we trust them with our vulnerabilities they can learn to do the same with us. Sometimes students, or ourselves, can do things that damage our relationships. When this happens it&#8217;s important to work towards rebuilding the relationship<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Belief<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.pinimg.com\/originals\/0f\/fd\/ba\/0ffdbabea58ed5d3efbcbd48e8eb6180.png?ssl=1\" alt=\"I Am Scared Shitless | Most famous quotes, Famous quotes, Quotes\" \/><figcaption>`<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>What do we know to be true about our students? Some students may feel defined by their trauma, however, that should not define them in our eyes. We must believe that all our students are capable of achieving our high expectations. But those expectations should be based on the strengths of the students and push our students to their fullest potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Our students come to the classroom with ACEs and to be the best teachers we can we have to know the best practices to care for students with trauma. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FosteringResilientLearners?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FosteringResilientLearners<\/a> is a great book with lots of great resources for teachers. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/EDT432?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#EDT432<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Mr. Turner (@MrTurne82324326) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MrTurne82324326\/status\/1255955373586079745?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 30, 2020<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Adverse childhood experiences manifest themselves in our classroom.
