#288 The Elephant in the Room…Student Behavior (Ms. Chyna pt.2)

Hello everyone! It is no secret that teachers are facing new levels of elevated behaviors from students. Many seem to struggle with self regulation, attention, and compliance. So much of this can be attributed to schools being closed and Covid changing the amount of tech kids learn with.

But the reality is, this is currently reality…which means we have to address it and learn to move forward.

To help with this, I brought back Ms. Chyna to the podcast to talk about all the things she is grateful for in this work, while also acknowledging the many difficulties all educators are facing. Ms. Chyna is a behavioral special education teacher, otherwise known as @especiallysped on Instagram, and is insightful, relatable, and always helpful.

Last week, we discussed finding your people and working towards positivity, and this week we are diving down the long discussion of behavior in schools, and how a mindset shift could help us evolve with the times.

Enjoy!

This episode is sponsored by Heinemann—the leading publisher of professional books and resources for educators—and their professional book, Textured Teaching: A Framework for Culturally Sustaining Practices by Lorena Escoto Germán.

With Culturally Sustaining Practice as its foundation, Textured Teaching helps secondary teachers stop wondering and guessing how to implement teaching and learning that leads to social justice.  Lorena Germán shares her framework for creating a classroom environment that is highly rigorous and engaging, and that reflects the core traits of Textured Teaching: student-driven and community-centered, interdisciplinary, experiential, and flexible.  The actionable strategies Lorena uses to bring Textured Teaching values to life illuminate what is possible when we welcome all types of texts, all types of voices, and all forms of expression into the classroom.
