Subject: class control

Question
how we can make students involved in class activities?

Answer
Not knowing what you teach, this varies from subject to subject but........When you design lessons, design them as though you or someone you like were in that class.............in other words, make them interesting and enjoyable.  Create group projects wherein students have to work together and research topics and then report them to you and the class.  Build in a variety of activities within each lesson.........example: introduction, core content, guided practice, hands on activity, summation or closure.

Best wishes!

Patricia
