TTT Ep079 - Triggers in School

School routines and unexpected events can affect children in ways we may not always see. Fire and lockdown drills, substitute teachers, changes in weather, witnessing conflict, or experiencing disruptive behavior can sometimes create fear, anxiety, or emotional distress. In this episode of The Teachers’ Tribe Podcast, we explore how adults can recognize possible triggers, respond with compassion, create a sense of safety and predictability, and help children develop healthy coping strategies. We’ll also consider an important reminder: supporting children begins with caring for ourselves. As we prepare for a new school year, let’s make emotional safety part of our back-to-school preparation.
