"The I DIBS YOU! bookmark for the classroom is a trifecta like no other! As a student’s advocate, teachers are in the unique position to impact students beyond the classroom. With this tool it brings that opportunity one step closer.
Using the I DIBS YOU! process of a prearranged agreement between teacher and student, that the discussion of any situation will be held in a calm and safe manner, this simple bookmark can be an empowering tool that may change your student’s life.
We are so excited to share this wonderful bookmark with the teachers of Austin Independent School District as a tool to build connection in their classrooms. The step-by-step guide to connection is easy to use and provides the opportunity for all students to have felt safety in their classrooms and with their teachers. By having the DIBS conversation with their classes at the beginning of the school year, the teacher will be setting the tone for the entire school year as one of caring and togetherness."
