1. Tell them what's going to happen in the future, basic step-by-step instructions. For example, tell them to do good in Science, so they can get Earth Science next year.
2. Make a deal with them. For example, be like if you get your work done faster, then we will play a game at the end.
3. I think the most important thing for a teacher to do is to make their fun, so the students want to learn more, and in a fun way.
4. Teachers can set high expectations, this pushes students to do better, and actually feel like they can do it or make it.
5. If a teacher has a classroom routine, that makes it even easier, since the students already know what to do, then they will just get it done with.
