Know Me To Teach Me - Differentiated discipline for those recovering from Adverse Childhood Experiences (Paperback)

Many educators are now recognising how significant alternative ways of thinking in the classroom are for optimising engagement and learning. Louise explores how to facilitate quality moments of relationship with children and young people that genuinely reach them, where they are, recognising the impact of trauma on their emotional state, mental functioning and ability, or lack of it, to trust the adults. She helps identify the best way to work in practical terms so that we can teach curriculum as well as healthy behaviours. Honouring biology by building on Perry's (2006) neuro -developmental sequence, Louise provides numerous creative ways of being and doing for those wanting to ensure school is as inclusive as it can be.
