Trauma is so elusive! We can’t see it on the faces of our students. Even if we find out the kind of trauma certain student has experienced, we still have no idea how it has impacted or continues to impact them. The negative effects of trauma can overwhelm the classroom mojo like nothing else you can imagine. Why? Because it impacts everyone it touches … the teacher as well as the other students in the room. The teacher, often unknowingly, responds to the outward behaviors that result from trauma, which impacts the classroom environment and dynamics. This Quick Start Implementation and Reflection Guide is a companion to my book. It provides educators, administrators, and any other school professional with the information and guidance to evaluate your knowledge of how trauma impacts your students. It also provides opportunities for your to reflect upon your current instructional practices and how you can include what you know about students of trauma and their unique needs to improve your instruction and their responses and behavior in your classroom. It's time to be the difference for a child of trauma! Are you ready?

Trauma does not discriminate. The lasting effects that trauma brings into a child’s life applies to all students of all demographics, varying financial status, culture and different family dynamics. Trauma does not discriminate. It is adept at impacting all students. Trauma has impacted the lives of 1 out of 4 children. Chances are you have one of these children in your classroom or school today. Teachers are in a unique situation to positively impact the lives of children living with trauma, perhaps making the difference that helps them see their future with hope. After a special unit on Heroes, one of my students wrote: “I want to think that a hero can be anyone. But I see the bad that some people do. I want to be the kind of person someone thinks of as a hero.” Showing students to view their situation as hopeful can make you a hero to a child of trauma.

If Only She Knew ...: Engaging the Whole Student with Trauma in Mind

After graduating from the University of Chicago, Nathan joined the United States Marine Corps, and when he shipped out to Basic Training, he brought note-taking gear. In the first part of Becoming a U.S. Marine: Adapting Basic Training to the 21st Century, Nathan explores recent developments in warfare and combat, the role of the Marine Corps in the modern world, domestic policy challenges, and most importantly, suggested improvements to Basic Training. These recommendations reverberate far beyond the Marine Corps and the U.S. Military; for many lessons drawn from the chaos of the modern battlefield are applicable wherever people seek to achieve a mission in a perilous and fast-paced environment. In the second part of Becoming a U.S. Marine: Adapting Basic Training to the 21st Century, Nathan provides a first-hand account of the notorious Basic Training program, complete with stories and links to videos to generate an immersive experience. This book is therefore not only intended for readers interested in domestic and foreign policy, military tactics and training, but also for those looking to understand or relive their time in Boot Camp.
