Self awareness is one of the best things you can do... We can't expect our students to do self management well without the self awareness.
Classrooms can be a breeding ground for anxiety, but what if self-awareness could be the key to managing it? In this episode of Arkansas A.W.A.R.E., hosts Dr. Betsy Kindall, Nicole Fairchild, and Dr. Stacy Moore dive into the world of student anxiety and the transformative power of self-awareness. Drawing from their collective experience of over 30 years in education, they explore how understanding and managing one's emotions can make a significant difference for students struggling with anxiety.
The trio sheds light on practical strategies that educators can employ to create a safe and supportive classroom environment. Forget shame-based management techniques; they advocate for a firm yet compassionate approach that fosters trust and emotional safety. The episode also highlights the benefits of social and emotional learning (SEL) and how it can enhance students' overall well-being. They don't just talk theory; they share real-life scenarios and personal anecdotes that make the discussion relatable and engaging.
Whether you're an educator looking for new ways to support your students or a parent trying to understand what your child might be going through, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice. Tune in to discover how fostering self-awareness in the classroom can help students manage their anxiety more effectively.
