understand what trauma is and how it hinders the learning, motivation and success of all students in the classroom
build strong relationships and create a safe space to enable students to learn at high levels
adopt a strength-based approach that leads you to recalibrate how you view destructive student behaviours and to perceive what students need to break negative cycles
head off frustration and burnout with essential self-care techniques that will help you and your students flourish.

Each chapter also includes questions and exercises to encourage reflection and extension of the ideas in this book.

As an educator, you face the impact of trauma in the classroom every day. Let this book be your guide to seeking solutions rather than dwelling on problems, to building relationships that allow students to grow, thrive and – most assuredly – learn at high levels.

Relationship, Responsibility and Regulation
Trauma-Invested Practices for Fostering Resilient Learners

In this stirring follow-up to the award-winning Fostering Resilient Learners, Kristin Van Marter Souers and Pete Hall take you to the next level of trauma-invested practice. To get there, they explain, educators need to build a “nest” – a positive learning environment shaped by three new Rs of education: relationship, responsibility and regulation.

Drawing from their extensive experience working with schools, students and families throughout the country, the authors

explain how to create a culture of safety in which everyone feels valued, important and capable of learning
describe the four areas of need – emotional, relational, physical and control – that drive student behaviours and show how to meet these needs with interventions frame around the new three Rs
illustrate trauma-invested practices in action through real scenarios that identify students’ unmet needs, examine the situation from five stakeholder perspectives and suggest interventions to support students and their families
offer opportunities to challenge your beliefs and develop deeper and different ways of thinking about your role in your students’ lives.

Educators have a unique opportunity to influence students’ learning, attitudes and futures. This book will invigorate your practice and equip you to empower those you serve – whatever their personal histories.
