As a teacher, it’s important to give your students constructive feedback about their work so that they can make improvements. However, it can be difficult to come up with methods for doing so that interest students and encourage them to read what you have to say. To help you out, the folks at Rubber Stamp Station are here to give you some ideas for providing feedback in a creative, attention-grabbing way:
- Jot your comments on colored sticky notes – When you write your feedback directly on your students’ papers, they may not notice that it’s there. To avoid this issue, we recommend putting your comments on a colored sticky note and attaching it to the paper. The color will catch your students’ attention and ensure that they don’t miss your valuable feedback.
- Have another adult give feedback on occasion – If your students don’t seem to be responding to your advice, it may be beneficial to have another teacher or even the principal of the school provide feedback on an assignment. Doing so will give kids a fresh perspective on their work.
- Let students provide feedback to each other – Another ingenious method for making sure students get feedback they will use is to have them swap papers and give each other constructive criticism. Most kids value what their peers have to say about them and their work, so this technique will most likely be successful in encouraging students to take feedback from classmates into consideration.
- Use rubber stamps for the classroom – Rubber stamps for the classroom allow you to add some pizzazz to your feedback and increase the chances that students will pay attention to your thoughts. After all, it’s much more exciting to get back an assignment with a colorful image and/or an encouraging message stamped on the top rather than generic pen scribblings.
