Ways to make school more interesting

Every school-going child has something to say about their school. Some students enjoy school because it has
activities that interest them and they have good friends to play with. However, others have different
experiences. You know, school may be the last place where they want to be. Some always want to escape from
school with boring lessons and tests because there is nothing interesting for them there. So what can be done to
make schools a place that all students want to go to every day?

Fun activities: One way to encourage students to enjoy school is to involve them in activities that make them
interested. We can make Physical Education at school interesting by teaching simple dances with modern music
instead of boring exercise. Providing students with various outside class activities, like hiking or obstacle
courses, or with more new clubs involving sports, music, or movies, can also be a good way.

Make school feel a little like home: No one likes to stay in an uncomfortable environment. Therefore, students
should be allowed to decorate their classrooms or dorms with pictures of family, friends or even idols to make
school homely. Then, they will feel happier and more comfortable.

Encourage socializing: In order for students to think that school is about more than just studying; outings or
field trips should be organized once in a while. This will help students get to know other people outside their
school, as well learn the art of socializing.
