7. Make Your Lessons Interactive

•

In a traditional classroom, the teacher stands in front of the

room and lectures to the students as the students listen and

take notes. Unfortunately, this is not the most effective way

to hold students' interest. Make learning interactive by

creating hands-on lessons that involve students every step of

the way. Try using the

Jigsaw cooperative learning activity

in

which each student is responsible for his or her own part of a

group activity. Or try a hands-on science experiment. When

you involve students and make your lessons interactive, your

class becomes more interesting.
