Trauma-Informed Practice in Montessori Classrooms: An Essential Guide for Students and Teachers
by Bernadette Phillips Catriona O'Toole Sinéad McGilloway Stephen PhillipsTrauma-Informed Practice in Montessori Classrooms provides important historical and contemporary evidence of the potential for Montessori schools to act as “healing” environments for children and young people. Drawing upon fascinating archival evidence and contemporary trauma theory, it shows how authentic Montessori schools already have the infrastructure to promote and embed trauma-informed practice (TIP) in their classrooms.The book provides cutting-edge, interdisciplinary knowledge on trauma and highlights its potential to negatively impact the emotional, social, and cognitive functioning of children and young people. It explains clearly and precisely the principles of TIP and how historically, these were woven into the fabric of the early Montessori schools, resulting in their reputation as “Case della Salute” or “Health Homes.” The book shows how this almost forgotten “healing” element of Montessori schools can be revived, harnessed, and promoted in ways that would benefit the overall health and well-being of children and young people.This timely book is highly informative, hugely practical, and reader-friendly. It includes features such as boxed chapter objectives, learner outcomes, vignettes, chapter summaries, and questions for group discussion. It provides an invaluable guide for Montessori teachers and students, for home educators using the Montessori approach, and for non-Montessori educators and parents.

Trauma-Responsive Schooling: Centering Student Voice and Healing
by Lyn Mikel Brown Catharine Biddle Mark TappanTrauma-Responsive Schooling outlines a novel approach to transforming American schools through student-centered, trauma-informed practices.The book chronicles the use of an innovative educational model, Trauma-Responsive Equitable Education (TREE), as part of a multiyear research project in two elementary schools in rural Maine. In this model, Lyn Mikel Brown, Catharine Biddle, and Mark Tappan endorse whole-school change, encouraging educators to upend traditional classroom power dynamics by listening foremost to student voices, validating student experiences, and promoting student agency.The authors provide complex real-life examples of student involvement in the creation and implementation of trauma-responsive and equitable practices. Their work offers readers concrete, actionable examples of such practices, which include supporting the whole child by promoting social and emotional learning (SEL) as well as academic achievement; providing access to basic needs such as food, clothing, and health care; and meeting the instructional requirements of dual-language learners.Many rural schools in the United States experience low student achievement and high absenteeism rates as their geographically isolated communities struggle with poverty, substance abuse, and other significant stressors. Yet, as the authors demonstrate, supportive learning environments, even in under-resourced rural schools, are able to mitigate adversity, stress, and trauma—and thus promote healing.This heartening work illustrates that, when educators and school leaders put student needs and interests at the core of school life, long-lasting change for all students is possible.
The Trauma-Sensitive Classroom: Building Resilience With Compassionate Teaching
by Patricia A. Jennings<P><P>From the author of Mindfulness for Teachers, a guide to supporting trauma-exposed students. <P><P> Fully half the students in U.S. schools have experienced trauma, violence, or chronic stress.

In Part I, Jennings describes the effects of trauma on body and mind, and how to recognize them in students' behavior. In Part II, she introduces the trauma-sensitive practices she has implemented in her work with schools. And in Part III, she connects the dots between mindfulness, compassion, and resilience.

Traumas Resisted and: Inquiring into Lost and Found Narratives in Music Education (Landscapes: the Arts, Aesthetics, and Education #36)
by Shelley M. Griffin Nasim NiknafsThis book focuses on the traumatic experiences within and through music that individuals and collectives face, while considering ways in which they (re)engage with their traumas in educational settings. The chapters delve into the physical, psychological, philosophical, sociological, and political aspects, as they relate to the reciprocal influences of trauma on musical practices and education. Readers are immersed in topics related to societal violence, physical injuries, grief, separation, loss, death, and ways of working through these in educational and artistic situations. In the introductory chapter, the co-editors draw attention to theoretical matters related to trauma through narrative inquiry in music education. The first section of the book, Separation Revisited, brings together notions of separation, focusing on how loss is emotionally and physically manifested when death, grief, and bodily injury are experienced. In the second section, (Re)Engaging with Lost and Found, readers are encouraged to imagine new possibilities considering trauma and loss in educational and musical spaces. These pieces offer deliberate ruminations moving the discourse toward (re)engagement in and through music education and artistic contexts. The co-editors conclude the book by drawing attention to narrative inquiry’s double-edged nature in stories of trauma and how the retelling of lost and found narratives offers a way to imagine lives otherwise—lives not smothered by grief and horror—through the conceivable reliving of unfathomable stories of experience. This book emerges from the 7th International Conference on Narrative Inquiry in Music Education (NIME7), October 2020, co-hosted by Brock University, Faculty of Education and the University of Toronto, Faculty of Music, Ontario, Canada.
