We all know that a teacher's relationship with a student has the potential to inspire them for the rest of their lives. Those pupils who've experienced trauma in their homes or communities should have that same potential. This book will make it possible for every teacher to be that guiding light that can shine for a lifetime. Tish Jennings presents a series of self-assessments and actions that can be implemented at the classroom and school level to support the well-being of both students and educators. There are numerous ideas and actions in these pages that will help any teacher to create a caring, compassionate classroom.--Mark T.
