ALL WE NEED IS TED LASSO: Part 4 – Believe
“I believe in hope. I believe in ‘Believe.’ ” – Ted Lasso
Believe.
Believe in yourself.
Believe in your teammate.
Believe in the students.
Believe in the caregivers.
Believe in the community.
John Hattie’s research (on research) consistently shows that the biggest impact on student learning is total teacher efficacy – believing that you impact learning and that your entire team impacts learning.
How are you impacting learning? Keep the goals of your curriculum clear. Center students. Have a clear picture of what successful learning looks and sounds like. Students are sponges who live in a constant state of learning. What are they learning about your patience? Your integrity? Your learning life? Your credibility? Your sincerity? Your belief in them?
