**This book study is worth one graduate credit of 15 continuing education contact hours. 

Are you a teacher who struggles with emotional storms in your classroom? Do you wonder how this impacts your students' learning and wellbeing? And what about the impact these storms have on you?

In today's world, many children struggle to manage their emotions at school, which can negatively affect the learning of others.

But what if you could reduce stress and disruption in the classroom and instead support a calm and connected learning environment?

Emotional Storms will increase your knowledge of the various causes of dysregulation. In this easy-to-follow guide, you'll learn simple, time-efficient prevention strategies you can use in your classroom every day. You will also gain ideas on how to turn the tide if a storm is imminent and minimize the impact of those that do occur.

Your role in supporting and educating children is vital and inherently stressful, so this must-read book also provides crucial information on self-care and wellbeing.

Teachers aim to change the world by educating young minds, and children learn best when they are 'safe and social'. Armed with the powerful information in this text, you can connect the two and benefit students today as well as the generations who follow.
