towards a holistic approach to student learning – that is, learning inside and outside
the school.
People work hard at making their homes as attractive as possible. It is worth thinking
about the environment that you expect your students to learn in. Anything you can do
to make your classroom and school an attractive place to learn will have a positive
impact on your students. There is plenty that you can do to make your classroom
interesting and attractive for students for example, you can:
• make posters from old magazines and brochures
• bring in objects and artefacts related to the current topic
• display your students’ work
• change the classroom displays to keep students curious and prompt new learning.
