  • The loss of our usual habits can cause shock and grief, so one way educators and parents can prioritize predictability is by creating routines.
  • Because trauma involves a loss of control, inflexible teaching methods can trigger some students into survival mode.
  • Relationships are key to resilience, “so anything that teachers can do to help foster relationships should be a priority right now,”
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • people affected by trauma sometimes interpret neutral signals as negative
  • “I invite (educators) to be crystal, crystal clear with students that you miss them and you care about them,”
  • Trauma takes power from people, so trauma-informed educators need to think critically about not reproducing that dynamic. Venet said that means dropping power struggles, such as the demands she’s seen that students wear certain clothes or sit in certain parts of their house during distance learning.
  • focus instead on empowering students through shared decision-making and authentic choice
  • model consent by not taking pictures of Zoom calls or sharing students’ work without permission
  • “Now more than ever, kids don’t need to be doing fake work. They don’t need to be doing worksheets,”
  • Use trauma as “a lens, not a label” to understand students. Trauma is a response, not an event. Do not assume that any particular child definitely did or did not experience something as trauma. Although the COVID-19 pandemic is creating widespread anxiety, not all kids are experiencing it as stressful. Resources and relationships play a role.
