In this deeply moving episode of Let’s Talk Teacher to Teacher, Dr. Gina Pepin dives into the impact our absences and disruptions in routine can have on students—particularly those who have experienced trauma. Through a poignant story from her own classroom, Dr. Pepin reflects on a moment when a student, Tommy, expressed his fear of loss after her absence, saying, "I thought you were dead."
This episode explores the emotional and psychological effects that absences, even short ones, can have on children who rely on stability and routine. Dr. Pepin offers practical strategies for how teachers can support their students during these times, from acknowledging their feelings to reinstating routines that provide reassurance and security. Tune in for a heartfelt reminder of the powerful role teachers play as consistent, caring figures in their students’ lives.
Takeaway:
As educators, our presence means more than just being in the classroom—it’s about creating a safe, steady environment for our students.
