My flagship, and most popular, training is 10 Strategies for Building a More Trauma-Informed Classroom. This training covers a LOT of material and is a great introduction for teachers and school staff who do not have a lot of experience with trauma-informed practices in the school environment. Not only will teachers get a solid foundation in what trauma-informed care looks like in a classroom and why it is critical to the success of their students, but they will also walk away with a toolbox full of strategies that they can begin using immediately. These strategies don’t cost a lot of money or take a lot of time to implement. They are simple, common sense strategies that are just best practice for ALL kids.
Additionally, this training will cover:
- The 3 Types of Trauma
- Adverse Childhood Experiences (or ACEs)
- Characteristics of Trauma
- How Trauma Impacts the Brain, Learning and Behavior
- Trauma-Informed Discipline
- Mindfulness and De-Escalation Strategies
- 10 Strategies for Building a More Trauma-Informed Classroom
- How to Get Started
If you are looking to give your teachers a toolbox full of strategies to help them have a successful year with students, particularly struggling students, this training is a great place to begin. It is typically a 6 hour training but topics can be added or subtracted, as necessary. This training is also great done in smaller 1-2 chunks during monthly staff meetings.
