To include and motivate students

• Create a bright welcome board that incorporates every student’s name and makes them feel a part of the classroom.

• Use student snapshots and Polaroid photographs of the class members at school activities to create a bulletin board, collage, or montage for display.

• Randomly select a "Student of the Week" to feature on a bulletin board.

• Display students’ work. Ask students which assignments or projects they would like to have displayed.

• Display "thermometer graphs" to measure progress toward major class and/or school goals. Let students have responsibility for maintaining and posting changes in the "rising temperature."
