Series 8: Ep. 5-Resetting the Classroom: Supporting Students After Dysregulation with Dr. Diane King-Shaw
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Diane King-Shaw to explore what it looks like to return to the classroom after dysregulation and how to support both students and teachers in that process. From re-establishing a sense of safety to navigating the emotions that linger after challenging moments, this conversation highlights the importance of intentional repair.
Dr. King-Shaw shares practical ways to support re-entry, including regulating yourself first, creating space for students to process what happened, and restoring the classroom environment so it feels safe and predictable again. We also explore how anxiety and dysregulation can show up more quietly, as well as how behaviors can spread within a classroom and what educators can do to support the whole group.
