At Gifted and Talented Teacher, our affirmation stations have become iconic classroom staples — blending wellbeing, creativity, and evidence-based practice to support students where they need it most.
Research shows affirmations are more than just “feel-good” statements. Grounded in self-affirmation theory (Steele, 1988) and backed by neuroscience, positive affirmations help reduce stress, activate the brain’s reward systems, and build resilience (Cascio et al., 2016).
