SOS 4 Teachers

HELP FOR TEACHERS WHO ARE JUST STARTING OUT OR WHO HAVE RUN INTO A SITUATION THEY HAVE NEVER ENCOUNTERED BEFORE.

WE ALL NEED HELP!

I taught full time for fifteen years and am now subbing so that I can finish my novel. I don't have all the answers. None of us do. In fact, even if something works great for me, there is no guarantee it will work for you.
I hope that we will give each other suggestions. I went to all the trainings I could get my principal to approve when I taught full-time. I talked to a lot of teachers. AND I just kept trying things until I found something that worked FOR ME. We can not go against our own nature. Kids can sense that and will test us.
So, don't give up. Keep on trying new things and always know that there is a place to go where you can be anonymous and speak freely.
Best of Luck to all of you. Our children deserve the best that we can offer.

Predictor of Child's Attachment to Parent

In lifewritersforum@yahoogroups.com, Stephanie West Allen wrote:

"Coherent narratives is based upon the incredibly amazing finding in
attachment research that the most robust predictor of a child's
attachment to a parent is the coherence of that parent's
autobiographical story. The child's attachment predicts all sorts of
things like social, emotional, and cognitive developmental outcome in
a positive way for secure attachments."
