Happiness isn’t found in seeking wealth, fame, or beauty; it grows from within—through personal growth, meaningful relationships, and good health. And sometimes, it’s as simple as having a dog who loves you.

I didn’t realize the wide spectrum of behaviors and tendencies within each of these trauma response types. Keep this in mind when working with students. #traumainformed #trauma #edchat

Maybe #laterchat should happen 24 hours after…so like 24 hours late to continue the conversation the next night….

Love the list! Just curious, is there a time for the #laterchat, or is it just a list of questions/comments to be answered asynchronously? Just trying to understand the goal here :) Thanks for sharing Becky! #eduskychat

A3: #eduskychat
1. Don’t be afraid to fail. 
2. Use a similar format to your classes and assignments…students love routine.
3. Find a framework that works for you, like 5e.
4. Use AI to get you started.
6. Iterate! As soon as you see something can be improved, update your assignment for next time. 
7. Make sure you provide a rubric so students know how they will be evaluated.
8. Try to create assignments that give students choice, and always add a few extension activities for students who want to go beyond.
9. Try to reflect and keep notes for the next year on how to improve your projects and activities.
10. Practice rigid flexibility.

Do you use canva for that?

I also do the projects along side my students. It helps me help them, discuss techniques and fine tune methods.

A2: My students do a lot of hands-on projects where they are performing hands-on labs, creating models or creating objects for survival. #eduskychat

A1: I have created labs and hands-on activities for students. I can usually find supporting videos for my content, so I haven’t had to create many of those. AI can definitely help in creating new materials from scratch. #eduskychat

I have a question for #eduskychat tonight. What strategies or frameworks do you use to ensure your educational content is both engaging and informative, while catering to different learning styles? #edusky

Hosting family is rewarding but exhausting - you’re left tired, but with a full heart, ready to get back to work.

It feels like twitter circa 2007. Looking forward to connecting with folks working with similar interests, and I appreciate the lack of advertising.

Humans don't come with flowcharts, protocols, or algorithms. We can't always use one-size-fits-all responses to behavior. We need relationships to help support our responses, or we risk making things worse instead of better. This includes both children and adults.

A deregulated child is like a ship tossed on rough seas, overwhelmed by inner waves of emotion. Our job is to help them learn how to navigate those waves and find calm, steady waters.

Absolutely. We actually have a small book club, and we are meeting after reading sections. I’m happy to provide feedback.

Working on a new theory about consistency and routine… but finding time to do it? Well, that’s the real challenge.

When working with students who carry trauma be like water and ice. You can soften to meet their needs or provide the stability to heal.
