Reply to "ACEs, Trauma, and Resilience Curriculum for Children and Youth?"

Thanks for getting the right link, Jane, for the WA state PreK-12 curriculum. This curriculum is a relatively easy insert into the "regular" school day/existing curriculum and gives teachers at all grades ideas how to reframe their conversations with children, structure the material, etc. Another curriculum is Reaching Teens available at the AAP website - authored and edited by Dr. Ken Ginsburg. While this curriculum is "aimed" at teens, more than half of the content is applicable to any age group and the learning opportunities are highly accessible and meaningful.  The Momentus Institute can be found at  http://www.momentousinstitute.org/  This is an amazing approach with children starting at age three ... focus on the brain, teaching kids the different parts of the brain, emphasizing mindfulness in a variety of ways ... they do an outstanding conference presentation especially for early care and early elementary educators and counselors.  Their accomplishments with children who have experienced trauma, in the child welfare system, etc. is truly magical.

 

The Burlington VT Public School curriculum is a mindfulness curriculum written for public schools.  http://www.mindfulnessink12edu...-public-schools.html

 

There are several others.  I can return to this site over the weekend and give you another 5-6 resources if folks are interested. These materials have been suggested by folks who have actually used them and achieved success with them.  Enjoy!
