Belonging by Dustin Bindreiff
Develop a sense of safety and connection in our youth Research shows that a sense of belonging has a profound effect on the physical, mental, and social well-being of children and adolescents. Yet, current events, including the decline of community and rising tensions over racial and economic inequalities, have endangered that fragile and critical component—and nowhere is this felt more acutely than in schools. In Belonging, the author, who has spent decades working with the most challenging students, provides research-based strategies to strengthen relationships, build inclusive classrooms, develop trust, and foster a sense of psychological safety. Readers will find: Vignettes demonstrating how belonging applies to a variety of learning contexts Research around mindsets, the development of empathy, and community-building Sections dedicated to equity and inclusion Strategies teachers can directly apply in their classrooms With his deep knowledge of education, behavior, and neuroscience, Dustin Bindreiff provides a fresh look at the troubling issues our students face and provides practical strategies for building a more hopeful future."I so enjoyed reading this bookIt helped me rethink the struggles I am observing in students as we return to school during and following the pandemic. We know kids need connection and belonging and quality relationships to learn, but when we are in survival mode ourselves, it can be hard to remember. This book explains it all and provides helpful examples and research to support what we know is good for our students and ourselves. I can’t wait to share it with colleagues and put the ideas presented here into practice."
