Love this article from @Aimee_Bloom1 at @GGSPosEd on lessons from Ted Lasso. The Walt Whitman quote, "Be curious, not judgemental" was my fave! https://t.co/NrOGUPB0n3

[Emma Thompson @emma_t_edu]

Like Ted Lasso needed any further endorsement. A fantastic, short and sharp check in with how the prinleciples of #positivepsychology can be leveraged and embedded in our classrooms. Love, love, love it. @GGSPosEd https://t.co/LrbwxnvmL8
