Description

This week's episode continues Ilene's December focus on self-belonging and my advocacy for starting in our classrooms and our homes with children. We shouldn't have to wait until we are much older to find self-belonging. There are many ways to instill this in even our youngest children and students. Ilene shares her childhood story and teachers she remembers who supported her self-belonging and those that didn't. She also shares some ideas to implement in your classroom/school (links below).
