Belonging is a human need that is often overlooked in education. What is belonging and how can we ensure that every member of our school community (students, teachers, parents, and school leaders) feels a sense of belonging? In Ilene's first book, Journey to Belonging: Pathways to Well-Being, she realized that she lacked a sense of belonging in school which made her feel excluded and lonely. Her journey to belonging began much later in life, but it shouldn’t have. In her newly published companion book, Finding Your Pathway to Belonging in Education she shares lesson ideas, activities, and resources to support educators who are looking for ways to develop their professional belonging while ensuring their students feel a sense of personal belonging.
