Description - Classroom Crisis by Kendall Johnson

Today's teachers are faced with unprecedented challenges. Students arrive with critical family and personal problems. School-wide emergencies such as shutdowns, campus violence and loss bring unanticipated stress. Community events impact the classroom, and there are threats of disaster, terror and war. Teacher education rarely prepares teachers for this "hidden curriculum". Classroom Crisis provides answers. The book is concise, delivering what teachers need in an accessible format. They learn about children's reactions to emergencies and how they can help a student and stabilise a class. Detailed instructions are included on how to calm students who are panicked, enraged or hysterical, and how to activate students who are in psychological shock.
