“When Students Say Scary Things: How Educators Can Respond with Confidence”
– Our Resilient Educator Webinar series
It’s one of the most difficult moments in education: A student says something that makes your stomach drop.
- “I hate everyone here.”
- “They’re going to regret this.”
- “You’ll see what happens…”
What do you do next? Most educators are never fully trained for these situations—but are expected to respond quickly, appropriately, and confidently. This webinar is designed to change that.
Thursday April 30th @
1:00-2:00 Mountain | 12 Pacific | 2 Central | 3 Eastern
Understanding the Role of Stress and Trauma in Education Today – Supporting Staff and Students Through a Brain-Based Lens
Through stories, examples, and a lively panel conversation, we’ll explore how to support students whose emotional responses seem out of sync with expectations, how to help students regulate before we reason with them, and how understanding “state-dependent functioning” can completely change the way we approach learning and discipline.
Relationships and the Power of Connecting with Every Student with Bill Milliken
In this webinar, we will discuss ideas from education leaders on how to adapt to individual student needs and become a “relational router” to connect them with key support systems and develop the skills they need to succeed at school, at home, and in life.
