The self-esteem of children is based on positive symbols and encouragement. Help them find it!
In the classroom, we can introduce symbols that enhance children's self-esteem. These can be simple gestures, such as praises and acknowledgments, that give them a sense of importance. Teachers, incorporate visual stimuli into your teaching that remind students of their achievements. This way, we create a culture where children feel safe and have space for personal development. Ultimately, this will influence their willingness to take risks and express themselves.
