    A1: Social-emotional health is a child's ability to form and cultivate healthy relationships. They can do this when they feel safe and supported. #EDpiper

    A1: Utilizing the skills/ ability to develop interpersonal relationships and coping mechanims to keep your mind “on your team.” #edpiper
  • BEARProjectWaco Apr 2 @ 10:08 PM EDT
    Students who have experienced trauma often don't "feel" safe, so we create that "felt safety" with them. #EDpiper

    In reply to @TrueNorthCG
  • MrsPottingerCCE Apr 2 @ 10:10 PM EDT
    I respond differently based on the student. This is where relationships make ALL the difference! #edpiper
  • ByronDurias Apr 2 @ 10:10 PM EDT
    A2. Give the S space. Let them find the time to process those emotions and simmer down.#EDpiper
  • TrueNorthCG Apr 2 @ 10:10 PM EDT
    Thanks for joining us @basil_marin! #EDpiper
  • lhelton15 Apr 2 @ 10:10 PM EDT
    Hello! Lindsey from Waco #edpiper
  • WinkelerD Apr 2 @ 10:10 PM EDT
    A1: I typically give them a few minutes to take inventory of their thoughts/emotions and then approach them quietly and see if they are ready to talk. #edpiper
  • basil_marin Apr 2 @ 10:10 PM EDT
    Social emotional health is very important and students will operate based on their level of understanding. When you know better, you do better!!#EDpiper
  • bjohnsonEDU Apr 2 @ 10:11 PM EDT
    A2: The best way to respond to disengaged behavior in the classroom is to seek to understand the underlying causes of the behavior. If a child's basic needs aren't being met, we can forget about whatever lesson we were planning to deliver. #EDpiper
  • TrueNorthCG Apr 2 @ 10:11 PM EDT
    Happy Monday @MsLangeEDU! #EDpiper

  • Owl_b_TorresEdu Apr 2 @ 10:11 PM EDT
    A2: We respond the way Ss need...some prefer space, others being hugged/reassured...patience and listening/acknowledgement are huge #EDpiper
  • sarahpedrotti Apr 2 @ 10:11 PM EDT
    Q2: Give them space....remember that they are trying to figure out their emotions/thought process. We give our kids tools to work through their issues, but we have to give them time. #EDpiper
  • Dale_Chu Apr 2 @ 10:11 PM EDT
    A2: Empathy can help, as well as understanding where the student is coming from and what happened. Avoid a “what’s wrong with you” approach. #EDpiper
  • BEARProjectWaco Apr 2 @ 10:11 PM EDT
    Could give more details about #DigCit?#EDpiper
    In reply to @LCHS_Bio
  • LCHS_Bio Apr 2 @ 10:11 PM EDT
    R2: I find this is not effective. Sometimes you need to identify what are the causes of this behavior. Is it a lack of sleep due to taking care of siblings, work, lack of food, etc. Ts need to look at whole child for causes. #EDpiper
  • WinkelerD Apr 2 @ 10:11 PM EDT
    I miss Joe Kelly #EDpiper
    In reply to @LCHS_Bio, @TrueNorthCG
  • lhelton15 Apr 2 @ 10:12 PM EDT
    A2:: Depends on situation and what happened first. Safe Place, cool down, or just giving them space. Ss know my office is open if upset. We can talk if they want or we can just sit. #edpiper
  • TrueNorthCG Apr 2 @ 10:12 PM EDT
    Hey @MeganOhlssen! Glad you joined us tonight! #EDpiper

    In reply to @MarthaDoennig
  • MsLangeEDU Apr 2 @ 10:12 PM EDT
    Depends. At times I have had other S go and try to interact with them to see if they can dissolve situation then go and talk- not confront #EDpiper

  • KiaMKTG Apr 2 @ 10:12 PM EDT
    Excellent approach! #EDpiper

  • DrJohnsonEDU Apr 2 @ 10:12 PM EDT
    A2: Giving a student time and space will help in many situations. Keep from drawing attention to the student or using humiliating tactics. Some Ss are processing or just need time to cope or deal with how they are feeling. #EDpiper
  • WinkelerD Apr 2 @ 10:13 PM EDT
    How long do you normally give them before approaching them? Do you approach them? What are your next steps? #edpiper
    In reply to @ByronDurias
  • SepukaMel Apr 2 @ 10:13 PM EDT
    A1 Social emotional health is ability to frame what occurs in our world, comprehend it and act in conjunction with our inner self in a measured way #EDpiper
  • TrueNorthCG Apr 2 @ 10:13 PM EDT
    Thanks for repping FL tonight @ByronDurias. I was in FTL last week for work but got a chance to spend a few hours outside! #EDpiper
  • sdawson4th Apr 2 @ 10:13 PM EDT
    A2: Making sure a Ss "love tank" is full is important when a S shuts down. Recognizing what actually fills their tank is even more important. #relationshipsareeverything #edpiper @Longbranch_Elem #misdproud
  • LCHS_Bio Apr 2 @ 10:14 PM EDT
    Digital citizenship. How to be responsible with our utilization of tech in the classroom and at home. I find that schools using an increased amount of tech 1:1, do a poor job creating safe environments for Ss to use tech. #Edpiper
    In reply to @BEARProjectWaco
  • WinkelerD Apr 2 @ 10:14 PM EDT
    Many times Ss will talk to one another before they will talk to Ts or admin. With approval, that student will then come relay the message. #edpiper
    In reply to @MsLangeEDU, @TrueNorthCG
  • MeganOhlssen Apr 2 @ 10:14 PM EDT
    Agreed. Maslow’s hierarchy of need is important for educators to connect with. Redefine behavior as a need not an intentional act. #EDpiper

  • MrsMorgansClass Apr 2 @ 10:15 PM EDT
    So true. Sometimes we jump to conclusions too quickly before we truly understand what’s really going on with them. #edpiper
    In reply to @bjohnsonEDU
  • courtney_c_carp Apr 2 @ 10:16 PM EDT
    A3: Do not get loud"er" - that does not work. Listen, kneel down to level, "what I hear you saying is..." Again, safe and nurturing. #edpiper
  • BEARProjectWaco Apr 2 @ 10:16 PM EDT
    Yes! We like to ask "What happened?" #EDpiper
    In reply to @Dale_Chu
  • DrJohnsonEDU Apr 2 @ 10:16 PM EDT
    Our Ss are growing up in a tech world. It's important for us to live and teach in this world, too. Knowing how to deal with real world issues includes the spaces outside our physical environment. We have to teach children how to cope within their virtual environments. #EDpiper
  • ByronDurias Apr 2 @ 10:17 PM EDT
    A3. We've talked about having a trauma informed approach. We have to stop asking students what's wrong with them and ask them what happened. #EDpiper
  • MeganOhlssen Apr 2 @ 10:17 PM EDT
    A2: Make yourself fully available to students. Put down your phone, clipboard, papers, laptop, etc... Be genuine and present when asking the student what they need and how you can help. Authenticity is key. #Edpiper
  • Owl_b_TorresEdu Apr 2 @ 10:17 PM EDT
    A3: Listen...repeat back in a calm voice...acknowledge their feelings...help Ss using breathing/calming techniques #EDpiper
  • MrsPottingerCCE Apr 2 @ 10:17 PM EDT
    We need to remember we are the adults- we do not "join them" in the behavior. #edpiper
  • Locke_STEAM Apr 2 @ 10:17 PM EDT
    A2: LOVE them- listen, ask, care, invest, show them you have their back. They’re SO much more than just another kid in a seat. #edpiper
  • sarahpedrotti Apr 2 @ 10:17 PM EDT
    A3: Allowing students the opportunity to talk and share their thoughts is eye opening....of course you have to listen with intent to their needs. #EDpiper
  • LCHS_Bio Apr 2 @ 10:17 PM EDT
    R3: so many of our Ss come from environments where yelling and screaming are the norm. They WONT respond to us escalating the situation. I remember a video from the early 2Ks where if you respond in a calm, almost agreeing voice, this deescalates the problem. #EDpiper
  • MsLangeEDU Apr 2 @ 10:17 PM EDT
    Obvious answer is with calmness but also important is to treat the outbursts with understanding. “I understand you’re mad, that would upset me too, but maybe...” #EDpiper
  • WinkelerD Apr 2 @ 10:18 PM EDT
    A3: Depends on the student. Sometimes I do nothing as they are just trying for attention. Others I address in a calm manner, even ask them to step in the hall and address them without a crowd. #edpiper
  • bjohnsonEDU Apr 2 @ 10:18 PM EDT
    A3: When students act out, they are seeking attention and redirection. One possible solution for teachers is to practice planned ignoring and redirection with a reinforcement of the expectations. #EDpiper
  • lhelton15 Apr 2 @ 10:18 PM EDT
    A3 Proximity and the "look" first. Then 2 positive choices with clear consequence if positive choice isn't made. #edpiper

    So glad to have you joining us, Kia! @KiaMKTG #EDpiper
  • sdawson4th Apr 2 @ 10:18 PM EDT
    A3: Implement conflict resolution strategies that encourage relationship building and mutual understanding over finger-pointing and retribution. #betterthancarrotsorsticks #misdproud #edpiper
  • basil_marin Apr 2 @ 10:18 PM EDT
    A3: You can not fight fire with fire, you have to remain calm and be consistent. Students crave structure and order.#EDpiper
  • MrsMorgansClass Apr 2 @ 10:19 PM EDT
    A3: By taking the opposite approach. Calm, cool, and collected - even when we’re fuming on the inside. #edpiper

    A3: De-escalate the situation...y’all this lotion works wonders for kiddos who are amped up...the pressure of rubbing their hands helps them focus #EDpiper
  • WinkelerD Apr 2 @ 10:20 PM EDT
    Agreed. It all starts with the relationships that you build that allows you to make connections and understand the students. #edpiper
    In reply to @Locke_STEAM, @ByronDurias
  • MrsMorgansClass Apr 2 @ 10:20 PM EDT
    Yep! We talk about that almost every day, dont we? #edpiper
    In reply to @Locke_STEAM
  • MsLangeEDU Apr 2 @ 10:20 PM EDT
    It’s also good for them to know that we experience the same emotions. Kinder S sometimes struggle with understanding it so guiding them through it is huge! #EDpiper

  • MarthaDoennig Apr 2 @ 10:21 PM EDT
    A3 Maintain emotional objectivity-children can only match your highest brain state so stay in the upstairs, prefrontal correct to influence the child to thinking, too! #Edpiper
  • MeganOhlssen Apr 2 @ 10:21 PM EDT
    A3: What’s critical here is appropriate body language and tone of voice. Be nonthreatening and calm. Speak normally, with empathy and care. Do not over react or threaten consequences - this will only escalate the situation. Our role is always to deescalate and support. #EDpiper
  • WinkelerD Apr 2 @ 10:21 PM EDT
    A4: It all starts with the relationships that you build with the students and recognize their cues/tells. #edpiper
  • DrJohnsonEDU Apr 2 @ 10:21 PM EDT
    I love the words from Fred Jones, @tools4teaching, "Calm is Strength." No matter the situation, keep calm. Not only will it help, but it models great coping skills in front of others (students and adults). #EDpiper
  • bjohnsonEDU Apr 2 @ 10:22 PM EDT
    True! Sometimes fighting fire with fire is their love language. By being calm, we show them a different language. One that makes them better communicators and employable in the future. #EDpiper
    In reply to @basil_marin
  • courtney_c_carp Apr 2 @ 10:22 PM EDT
    A4: Non-Violent Crisis Intervention is a very valuable training we have learned benefits all educators for all students. Gains awareness, understanding, and provides a toolkit. #edpiper
  • ByronDurias Apr 2 @ 10:22 PM EDT
    Ss have to feel safe. Lately there is such an emphasis on school safety, but the reality is that many of our Ss don't feel safe with all of the adults on our campuses. #EDpiper
    In reply to @WinkelerD, @Locke_STEAM
  • TrueNorthCG Apr 2 @ 10:22 PM EDT
    YES! #EDpiper

    A2: look for the hidden messages. Listen to the whole child. What are they saying with their bodies? Respect that “voice” and join with them to move forward #EDpiper
  • Locke_STEAM Apr 2 @ 10:22 PM EDT
    A3: Role modeling and reassuring the class that this is a safe place and providing that in your consistent actions. #edpiper #steampln
  • TrueNorthCG Apr 2 @ 10:23 PM EDT
    Hey @carrie_arroyo! Thanks for joining tonight! #EDpiper
  • WinkelerD Apr 2 @ 10:23 PM EDT
    And that is a mindset that needs to be changed. Ss need to feel safe. I've told my students multiple times throughout the school year that I will do whatever I can to provide them the best education possible and keep them safe. #edpiper
    In reply to @ByronDurias, @Locke_STEAM
  • Owl_b_TorresEdu Apr 2 @ 10:23 PM EDT
    A4: Building authentic relationships w/Ps & Ss is so powerful...we (admin) also avail information to the Ts that we have learned that we feel gives them a better perspective #EDpiper
  • SepukaMel Apr 2 @ 10:23 PM EDT
    A3 calm needs to prevail and going from an unexpected angle helps #EDpiper
  • bjohnsonEDU Apr 2 @ 10:24 PM EDT
    Put relationships above all else and your students' needs will always be met. #EDpiper
  • LCHS_Bio Apr 2 @ 10:24 PM EDT
    R4: it is important for all stakeholders of the school to communicate about Ss. I have a great S if mine who lost a parent over break. The counselor communicated with us via email. If my S is off for a while (or the rest of the year) I know why. I can be aware. #EDpiper
  • ByronDurias Apr 2 @ 10:24 PM EDT
    A4. Know thy Ss! Every student has a story. We have to know our Ss. Relationships are so critical in helping A build their capacity to cope with social-emotional challenges. #EDpiper
  • carrie_arroyo Apr 2 @ 10:24 PM EDT
    A3: when they go high, we go low! Low voice, gentle face, calm and slow responses. #EDpiper
  • Dale_Chu Apr 2 @ 10:24 PM EDT
    A4: By listening and observation, building a strong relationship with each student, and asking him/her what they need to thrive in class. #EDpiper
  • bjohnsonEDU Apr 2 @ 10:25 PM EDT
    The adult focus is on school safety but students aren't learning right now because they don't feel that their basic social-emotional needs are being met. #EDpiper

  • MrsPottingerCCE Apr 2 @ 10:25 PM EDT
    Broken record here- but building a relationship with that student will make a difference. Also, looking past the behavior and finding the "trigger" for what caused the outburst. #edpiper
  • Owl_b_TorresEdu Apr 2 @ 10:25 PM EDT
    Love this! Perfect! #EDpiper
