Do you have a student(s) that are struggling with self-confidence? Try this 1 simple way to build your student’s confidence!
A lot of times students can display “behaviors” when they are feeling insecure. I implemented these simple affirmation statements when trying to build a student’s confidence. This created a 180 in my student’s behavior.
What is an affirmation statement??
It is an encouraging message that students can read daily, prior to a test or possible stressful event.
Ways to try this:
•Arrange them up around the mirror or sink and have students read one or two to themselves while washing their hands. •
•Record your voice reading the statements and send them to the students virtually. Students could listen to these prior to a test or work that may. be challenging.
•Print and laminate statements and pass them out each morning leave them on a student desk.
•Write one of these statements on their desk in an erasable marker.
•Display one each morning of virtual learning during your morning meeting. Have the students read it aloud together or silently to themselves.
• Have a jar with slips of paper students can write their own on and you can create new ones for the classroom.
