Recorded 1 week prior to its release, Traci was just returning to school after the historically catastrophic Texas Winter Storm of February, 2021. In this episode, she makes a heartfelt plea to educators to slow down and connect with students...connecting over teaching, connecting over assessing. As Traci dives deep into the conversation, her son walks into the room, and you know what that means...it's a conversation between the mom and son duo!
Listeners get to hear a teen's perspective of returning to school after disaster and how teachers engaged with students on their first day back.
This conversation promises to challenge your thinking, direct you to reevaluate how you connect with students, and reflect on your prioritization of instruction and social emotional needs of students.
