Teacher Resources
Helping teachers support children with learning, mental health, and behavioral challenges in the classroom.
About Our Teacher Resources
These resources are intended to inform and empower teachers, who are frequently the first line of defense when it comes to identifying learning, mental health and behavioral concerns, and help them work as effectively as possible with their students.
Mental Health in the Classroom
Though they aren’t health care professionals, teachers are faced with the mental health challenges of their students daily. From anxiety to OCD, mental health can have a big impact on students’ school performance and behavior.
Managing Behavior in the Classroom
A few disruptive children can have a huge effect on a classroom, and gaining their cooperation can be one of the toughest parts of the job. Our experts suggest strategies to improve behavior so that everyone can learn.
Supporting Students With Learning Disorders
Learning disabilities can impact everything from reading and writing to math and oral comprehension. Learn more about the different types and how to best support kids with LDs.
Supporting Students with ADHD
Kids with ADHD may have difficulty sitting still or staying focused in the classroom, but with the right accommodations and supports they can be successful at school.
Neurodivergent Kids in the Classroom
Neurodivergence is an umbrella term that refers to anyone whose brain works differently. It includes learning disorders, autism, ADHD, sensory processing disorder, and more.
Responding to Trauma
Trauma canbe triggered by something obvious, like a disturbing event, or less obvious — like like lack of stability at home and exposure to domestic violence. Both kinds impact kids in the classroom, and teachers who use trauma-informed strategies can help children thrive in school.
