I'd like to start off by apologizing for my lack of posts recently. This did give me my idea for today's post: Motivation!!
We need to motivate our students!! I had a teacher tell me she always sounded excited when beginning a new story in class, even when she knew the story was boring. She does a lot to motivate her students. When we choose to be excited about lesson we are teaching, our students get excited. So, that's our goal. Make lessons exciting!
Motivating students is easier said than done. How do you reach your students? How do you come up with enough ideas to motivate all students? To me, that's the issue we face. One way I choose to motivate students is offering rewards. I have designed reward coupons that cover a variety of different things. My goal is to have something that all of my students would want. (Reward Coupons) Praising students is another way I choose to motivate my students. My question for you is: How do you motivate your students? Please leave your response in the comments section. The first person to respond will receive a free copy of my Reward Coupons (make sure to leave your email address).
Happy Teaching!!
