6. How to Create a Trauma Sensitive Classroom Environment
from Next Chapter for Teachers Podcast · host Erin Sponaugle
Teachers are indeed affected by the insanity of this year and last, but we’re wired at this stage of our lives to respond and recover from it. A child who’s physically and psychologically growing and processing the unrest in this world right now - that’s a different story. Their ability to make sense of the trauma - the impact of distressing, dangerous events - requires a greater level of concern and care. In this episode, you will learn five ways to to create a trauma sensitive classroom environment starting today - even if the only contact you have with your class right now is thru a computer screen. Along with this I’m going to share some neuroscience to back up why these over arching practices will help with addressing trauma in the classroom.
