Place Matters

Emily Read Daniels ·
Place matters. It was spring break of 1993 – my senior year of high school – and I was driving back from Virginia Beach with three close friends. We passed signs for the University of Delaware. I asked if we could take a quick detour to see the campus. The one request literally changed the course of my life – forever. University of Delaware in Spring It was late in April and I had been accepted to UD but never set foot in the town of Newark, DE. Little did I know it would be the campus of my...

Co-Regulation with Students " At-Risk"-- Calming Together

Michael McKnight ·
Co-regulation with Kids "At-Risk"-Calming Together Highlights and thoughts from an article by Howard I. Bath:Calming together: The pathway to self-control Neuroscience shows that humans develop their abilities for emotional self-regulation through connections with reliable caregivers who soothe and model in a process called “co-regulation.” Since many troubled young people have not experienced a reliable, comforting presence, they have difficulty regulating their emotions and impulses.

ConVal High School's Story: Becoming Trauma-Informed for Substance Abuse Prevention

Former Member ·
As a student assistance counselor, I regularly receive flashy emails from various organizations promoting materials for drug-free schools. Secretly I roll my eyes and strike the trash icon. “Drug free schools - ha, right?!” It may sound cynical or jaded that I don’t believe in drug-free high schools. It’s not that. The truth is I don’t believe a drug-free high school exists. This isn’t from a lack of effort or concern. As a product of the “Just Say No” era, schools have worked for decades to...

Self- Regulation Begins with Dogs, Tense Knots and Calm Socks

Matt Leek ·
Self-Regulation Begins with Dogs, Tense Knots and Calm Socks Originally posted to ORAEYC, February 19, 2019 | Janai Mestrovich, M.S. We were all barking like dogs that were upset on all fours in the preK classroom. Then I used the Breathing Sphere to guide 20 preK children to take slow, deep belly button breaths to release the mad dog tension. As we all slowly exhaled and released the tight knots of tension, we were able to become calm dogs. The sounds of tense mad dogs had filled the room...

Student Discipline & Co-Regulation

Michael McKnight ·
Co-regulating Students Correcting student behavior is part of our work as educators yet often it can lead to escalation of student behaviors. As teachers we can learn ways that can lead to students actually hearing what it is we say. Note: For anything positive to come of our concern both the adult and the young person need to be in the executive center of our brains!! I intentionally use the term "care-fronting" rather then confronting. As teachers and administrators we want to learn skills...

Teaching students the art of self-reflection by measuring their heart rate under 3 different circumstances

Sabrina Eickhoff ·
This year I came up with an effective strategy using an app on my iPhone. I have been working with 3-6 graders showing them how their heart rate tells a story about how they are feeling in response to external stimuli. I show them through a series of three experiments which measure their heart rate under three different circumstances.

The Regulated Classroom: Camp for Educators

Emily Read Daniels ·
When educators learn about the devastating impact of ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences), childhood trauma, and toxic stress on a child’s developing body, brain, and behavior, they often remark, “Well...what do I do now?” The Regulated Classroom answers that question. In this three-day intensive camp experience, educators will deepen self-awareness and capacity for self-regulation through a new approach to trauma-informed teaching.

Rhythmic, Repetitive, Patterned, Physical Regulation

Meagan Baldwin ·
In an urban elementary school in Kansas, teachers are using Bal-A-Vis-X to help students regulate their bodies and their emotions. In the words of BAVX creator, Bill Hubert, " BAVX enables the mind-body system to experience the symmetrical flow of a pendulum." When students arrive in the Mindful Classroom for a scheduled break, the teachers engage them in a few minutes of partner BAVX exercises. During those few minutes, they are completing hundreds of rhythmic, predictable mid-line...

This looks fantastic. I have been trying in a variety of ways to bring neuroscience --- especially in terms of bullying --- to educators.

Re: Student Discipline & Co-Regulation

Love the article, Michael. As a long time school psychologist, I am very familiar with the dance up and down the discipline process, as adults (both teachers and parents) are very much partners with the student in how the trajectory goes for students were are already suffering and lacking skills. Often our responses can lead to further disengagement in school and adult level conflicts which the student observes, which further detracts from their ability to have agency in their developing...

Trauma-Informed Classrooms: Educator Self-Care

Alexandra Murtaugh ·
Working in a school is hard. It doesn’t matter if you work in a suburban, urban, or rural area. It doesn’t matter if you work with 5 year-olds on building empathy, teach 11 year-olds about symbiosis, coach teachers in aligning curriculum, or help high school seniors choose their postsecondary pathways. It is hard work. From the cacophony of lockers closing at dismissal, to the challenge of getting 25 sets of 8 year-old eyes looking at you in synchrony, schools are a special kind of organized...

Re: ConVal High School's Story: Becoming Trauma-Informed for Substance Abuse Prevention

Rene Howitt ·
It is so encouraging to hear so many schools are using the knowledge gained from the ACEs study and asking students to look at the trauma they have already experienced. If students aren't safe at their home they begin to think there are no safe places. Then they enter their teens and find, by experimenting with drugs and alcohol, that temporarily they can feel safe or numb. They step out of the "just experimenting or having fun stage" and into a mechanism for coping. We are getting our...

My neighbor, an avid gambler, mentioned 1xbit1 casino for its excellent range of live dealer games. Curious, I tried it out one weekend and was pleasantly surprised by the professional and engaging dealers who made the live casino experience feel as real as being in a physical casino. The interactive aspect of playing alongside others added a social element that made the experience more enjoyable and lively.
