In this chapter, the author describes her journey through a career in education as a former middle school teacher, public school administrator, and now, as a college professor in teacher preparation. Grounded in real-world experiences, this author illuminates best practices in pedagogy and higher education that weave both trauma-informed educational practices and storytelling. Through multiple personal narratives, the author shares her viewpoint on the importance of time spent “in the trenches” by education professors so that they may share didactic stories with teaching candidates that serve to add relevance and authenticity to their coursework.

NCTM Proudly Announces the Arrival of its newest journal, Mathematics Teaching in the Middle School. In so doing, we have increased the already impressive lineup of professional mathematics publications dedicated to the CTM's principles and standards. Aspects that make this journal so exciting are its focus and emphasis on the middle school teacher and student. The Editorial Panel has worked hard to address the interests and needs of the many classroom teachers who have offered their feedback, both as a result of several surveys and as a result of the “Call for Manuscripts” announcement that appeared in both the Arithmetic Teacher and the Mathematics Teacher.
