Families in Crisis & in Abusive Situations

Create a digital presentation that would be used in a teacher in-service about families in crisis, in transition, and in abusive/neglectful situations.

Your presentation needs to include the following:

At least 8-10 situations educators might encounter with students and their families, and possible ways to respond to those situations both in and out of the classroom.
Signs or behaviors educators might see in children or family members who are experiencing the above situations.
How the situations might affect a child’s performance in school. Additionally, consider how the situation could affect the classroom as a whole.
Empathetic, ethical, and legal considerations with regard to these situations. This does not have to be an exhaustive list; however, be sure to include your state’s mandatory reporting laws for educators in regards to ethical actions for abuse, neglect, and dangerous situations that may be occurring in the child’s household or family.
