In this episode of Circle Time Convos, Chief Leslie McKinley sits down with Dr. Chrisna Perry, an educational psychologist, learning disability specialist, and founder of Comprehensive Learning Services, to talk about how children’s different experiences show up in the classroom. From understanding the typical behaviors of 4 and 5-year-olds to recognizing when extra support may be needed, Dr. Perry shares practical insights on social-emotional learning, executive functioning, and how teachers and parents can partner to create safe and supportive spaces for every child to thrive.
