Five ways to make bulletin boards more interactive
It’s that time of the year when students get ready to join school after enjoying an eventful summer vacation. It can be overwhelming for students to change their routine. Getting a grip on the new syllabus can make it even more difficult to cope with this change. Hence, it is essential that teachers make the session interesting and interactive. Bulletin boards are a medium that keeps students updated about ongoing classroom activities, and allows them to post their ideas at the same time. Here are some ways in which teachers can use bulletin boards to make the curriculum more interesting for students going back to school. Interactive displays: The best way to make bulletin boards more interactive is to correlate the display with the curriculum. You can create a ‘reader’s choice’ section on the bulletin boards where students can answer a question posted by teachers. It is an interactive way to know students’ opinion on a particular topic or a subject. Choose the location wisely: The position of these bulletin boards is the key to grab the attention of students who are coming back to school after a long summer break. Teachers should place these bulletin boards in those areas where most students gather and socialize.
