Lunch and recess are generally the only two opportunities in the school day for students to play, interact, and make choices. Yet, in this face-paced and rigorous testing culture, these two areas are often counted as classroom currency. Shadow discipline, otherwise known as soft-exclusionary practices, is prevalent in many schools and may be seen as inevitable. This session will raise awareness for these punitive practices as well as suggesting pathways to advocate for the rights of children in your communities.
