Speaking Life Into Our Students with Ashley Tucker
Description
Many discussions on equity often fail to center the needs of special education students.
In this episode, we sat down with Ashley Tucker, special educator, Dean, social-emotional learning enthusiast, and Ed Leadership student at Teachers College. On her Instagram she shares anti-racist, trauma-informed resources. We discuss a variety of techniques and strategies parents and educators can use as they learn emotionally alongside their students.
