50. Trauma Informed Classroom Strategies for the SPED Teacher

Our students come to us with so much background and history. There are pieces that can be traumatic and those affect their daily behavior in the classroom. So how do we deal with trauma in our students, how do we help them be successful in spite of their past?

In this week’s episode I am joined by Rachel from Safe Space Teaching who will share with us strategies for creating a trauma informed classroom. Her tips are easy to put in place, but have a huge impact on learning.

In this episode you will learn:

 

• The benefits of having systems in place to respond to behavior
• How to adapt small things in your classroom for a big impact
• How to consider your own habits and triggers
• About understanding the role of what your students bring to the classroom
