Check out my new post on Edutopia, focusing on how we can create safety when in the midst of ongoing crisis.

There’s no magic strategy for living through hard times, but educators can support students by creating spaces that feel safe and joyful.

Way back in 2022, and I wrote a really cool chapter about how trauma is a complex concept and how teachers (particularly ELA teachers) can use a multidimensional trauma lens in their work. I was revisiting this recently and I thought...this was such a cool chapter and it deserves to be read more! So I finally scanned it and dropped it into my Google drive. Linking it in my profile. If you want to read a non-wonkily-scanned version and also a bunch of other cool writing about trauma-informed teaching, you can buy the volume from NCTE: search for Special Issues, Volume 2: Trauma-Informed Teaching.

AI refusal is trauma-informed and human-centered. A little paired texts, from my Threads and from the brilliant Audrey Watters in her newsletter.

As long as I have time I ALWAYS want to come to your book club! If you're reading either of my books with other educators this summer (or anytime), invite me to drop in! I always have so much fun with these and I love getting to chat with you all.

(Note- this is just for an informal q&a sesh, 30 minutes at the most. If you're looking for a more extensive PD, let's talk!)

Are students truly "unmotivated" or????
