What are you reading Wednesday? 📚 I highly recommend @rubyKpayne Ruby K. Payne, Ph.D. Book: “Educating Students Experiencing Homelessness, Instability and Disengagement” Ruby Payne examines a social cognitive framework that includes the importance of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) and human biology that impacts behavior. It also discusses the positive influence of safety and belonging on the prefrontal cortex.
Educating Students provides tools for negotiating the abstract realities of school and raising achievement, it reveals strategies for calming students, and it explores how to build a wider community of support. Payne also tells how the instability of resources, time demands, and the demands of the environment negatively impact the ANS and how to address this problem.

@ashley_hamel_ It was so great to meet you. Thank you for all the impact you've had on your students over the years of teaching. ❤️

[Ashley Hamel, M. Ed @ashley_hamel_]

My career in education and the life my children are privileged to live can all be credited to this human. I read Understanding Poverty and saw a window into helping myself and others break the cycle of generational poverty. That’s when I decided to become a teacher in EDUC 1301.

[Ruby Payne @rubyKpayne]
