Reviews for Teaching and Learning in the Face of Adversity: Strategies That Inspire

"""Teaching and Learning in the Face of Adversity offers teachers and administrators tangible tools for reflecting on their ability to ignite, cultivate, and grow relationships in the classroom with students and among faculty in a school or district. Trujillo, Fisher, and Frey blend their own experiences with interviews from teachers and current research on learner agency, relationship-building, and instilling a sense of belonging, resulting in a humanizing yet practical approach to supporting learners who′ve experienced adversity. They model the vulnerability and mindfulness we all need to validate and acknowledge the lived experiences that students, their families, and their teachers bring into our schools while offering pragmatic recommendations for challenging students to be their best selves."" -- Paul Emerich France"
