Re: Researcher looking for Gaps
Hi all. I love the idea of more research regarding SDED vs. Trauma. I have although narrowed my research to teacher's ACE's scores and their responses to the ARTIC scale. Sounds similar to you Kelli!

Re: Trauma Informed Curriculum for 13-18 year olds that have experienced trauma?
Erin, I would suggest you consult with the child's trauma therapist. Any child that has a trauma history should (and would greatly benefit) from having a "Trauma Trigger Management Plan." Avoiding triggers creates a fine line to walk. In a classroom setting - I think it's very important to avoid triggers - in a personal confidential and therapeutic setting - where a child may want help processing a trigger - is a different scenario but should only be addressed by a team working with that...

Re: PPT for High School Students explaining ACEs
Hello Ms. Nall- I saw your post on ACEs Connection and wondered where you were from. And if your state or area had ACE Interface available. It is a specific curriculum and ppt. developed by Dr. Anda and Laura Porter. I have found it to be one of the best and thorough and consistent presentations that can be built out and broken down as needed for an audience. Our Mental Health Region brought the training of trainers to us and we have trained additional presenters. So depending on where you...

Re: ACE Scores of Educators
I recently provided my campus a brief training on Trauma and Learning. As part of this training I included information about ACEs, gave teachers the ACEs questionnaire and discussed how our own ACEs score can affect teaching/teaching styles and how educators relate to their students as well as other faculty members. My final question for them "What ACEs score do you bring into the classroom?"

Re: What do you think, is a 6th SEL core competency needed?
Corrected Thesis; ACE's Knowledge and Awareness is a POWERFUL Therapy that delivers proven effective Therapeutic Healing in and of Itself. Simply knowing of ACE's and of one's own score is healing above any therapeutic intervention currently in use, to the best of my knowledge - odd as this might sound to those whose livings are made providing such therapies - not that these are not also beneficial - but the numbers speak for themselves I think. Dr. Nadine Burke-Harris has published some...
