Establishing Trust and Confidentiality

Creating calm and welcoming counseling spaces.

# data[].attributes.body
I try to make sure everyone feels welcome in my classroom by listening to their ideas, trying to remember what everyone likes and dislikes, teaching them that it is ok to make mistakes because we are learning.

When students perceive judgment or feel that their voices are not being heard, they may emotionally withdraw or shut down.

Last year, one of the kindergarten students would not engage along with the others in class. He would self-soothe by playing with his lip, and if asked a question would only shrug.

# data[].attributes.body
I built trust by quietly reflecting his feeling, and giving him space. I let him sit near me, and did a breathing exercise with the whole class. I invited him to lunch and used games to get to know each other, and helped him ground. I often become the toy, model vulnerability that it’s okay to make mistakes.

At the start of the year I meet briefly (“minute” meetings) with every student in the school to introduce myself and get to know them— their interests, family, where they’re from, etc. I make myself available for lunches with kids individually or in groups building relationship so they feel safe and comfortable with me.

The 4 levels of psychological safety are really helpful.

Also work with the consistency in the routines.

Incorporate the Wonder Board

# data[].attributes.body
This has been a very useful session. It reinforces the importance of building a safe environment for all stakeholders. Transparency, routines/guidelines are important to building a trusting community.

# data[].attributes.body
Incorporate 2x10 Relantionship Building

Keep developing Morning Meetings & Routines

# data[].attributes.body
Making sure class norms are taught and not just told or expected.

Strategies that I can apply in my classroom with students.

# data[].attributes.body

# data[].attributes.body
I tell them that they can go take a 5 minute break at the take a break center.

# data[].attributes.body
I get to know my students things they like, things they don´t like, and when they tell me something about a problem I give them advice and try to help them with it.

# data[].attributes.body
Students choose how to greet me before entering the classroom and in morning meeting we do sharing in which students express themselves and we also play a game, all students participate and have fun.

# data[].attributes.body
Establish routines and expectations at the beginning of the school year and reinforce them throughout the school year.

# data[].attributes.body
Same as Miriam the 4 leves of psychological safety.

# data[].attributes.body
The four levels of psychological safety and the critical importance of taking time to build relationships with students…providing that safe space so they can feel vulnerable to learn, grow and make mistakes. I loved the 2 x 10 took to that end.

Whenever I feel overwhelmed, anxious; going for a run listening to a podcast o a great album calms me down.

Someone had a disagreement with me and was roaring at me, getting louder and louder, not letting me speak. That is a trauma trigger for me. I felt my heart racing, and fists clenching as I went into fight or flight mode. What helped me get back to centre was moving away, taking deep breaths and checking in with my body. Then I read a good book that made me smile.

# data[].attributes.body
Something that helps me is when I get home, I take a hot bath and cry. I feel that helps me to take everything out of my system and give me the calm I need.

# data[].attributes.body
This was last school year: I had a student from another country who didn´t speak english or spanish. At first it was a challenge to communicate classroom rules to him and for him to understand them, but by the second semester he manage English conversation very well, but still had a hard time following classroom rules.

# data[].attributes.body
There is a four year old who is very impulsive and active. When he is frustrated or upset, e.g. when he another kid is playing with or using something he wants, he tends to escalate quickly and pinch or push peers. Often the adults miss the trigger, or miss opportunity to support him in navigating the trigger. Adults are frustrated with him and parents want him out of the camp.

What’s the best way to get teacher buy in to schoolwide mindfulness?

# data[].attributes.body
Ask for co-regulation when I'm feeling overwhelmed, try to regulate my voice tone (Im a very loud person haha), and add more strategies to the ones I already do (I give 5 minutes breaks between each class, breathing breaks, yoga poses, chair exercises).

Patience

The circle is a powerful tool that can help students explore and express their emotions more accurately, moving beyond general terms like 'anxious' or 'upset' to identify how they truly feel.
