Not Like Every Day: Finding Calm During School Lockdown Drills
Not Like Every Day: Finding Calm During School Lockdown Drills
For Henry, lockdown drills can be scary. Staying quiet and still is tough, but with the support of his teacher, he's able to stay calm. This reassuring story explores the complex emotions surrounding school lockdown drills and includes helpful resources from a school psychologist and safety expert. I wish today was like every other day.
But it isn't.
Today my stomach is twisted in the middle
like a bunch of tissue paper butterflies. During his school's lockdown drill, Henry tries to make himself as small, and still, and quiet as possible, but even though he knows it's just a drill and it's not real, he still doesn't like it. And even when the drill is over, it doesn't feel over for him. Luckily, Henry's teacher is there to offer guidance and reassurance. Together, they practice breathing exercises and focus on what Henry can smell right now to help anchor him in the present. And, most importantly, they talk about his feelings until he feels safe--until the tissue paper butterflies in his stomach untwist and fly away. With poetic prose and gentle artwork, this accessible picture book serves as an ideal starting point for discussions about lockdown drills and includes helpful resources for parents and teachers, such as discussion questions, a mindfulness exercise guide, and best practices for reducing the potential for trauma when conducting lockdown drills.
