According to the article 10 ways to keep your class interesting, there are different methods that we as future educators can use. 
1. Incorporate Mystery into the Lessons
- learning can be fun when students don't know what to expect. 
- We can give clues to help students guess
2. Don't Repeat Classroom Material
- Review is important but we should not be repeating. 
- 3-2-1 strategy is a fun way to review and not repeat material. For this activity, students draw a pyramid in their notebooks and write down three things they learned
3. Create Classroom Goals 
- Games are also a great way to keep lessons interesting
4. Give Your Student Choices 
- Ability to make their own choices when it comes to learning
- Choice can be a powerful motivator because it helps to foster student interest and independence 
5. Use Technology
- Keeps lessons interesting 
6. Don't take teaching so seriously
- Being an effective teacher is important but we should not be serious all the time
- Acknowledge that your students may have different interests and learning styles than your own
7. Make your lessons interactive 
- Hands on lessons
8. Relate material to students lives
- create a real-world connection to what your students are learning
9. Flip your lessons
-Students in a flipped classroom are able to work at their own pace
10. Think outside the box
- Thinking outside the box and plan a lesson that's completely out of the ordinary (guest speakers)

According to Our Experiences:
- Having students play quests (exploring a lesson online)
- Having students teach the information to the class
- Using Videos or Clips of shows (Tik Tok)
