A Classroom Engagement Framework Teachers Can Use Tomorrow

Engagement isn’t about entertainment.

It’s about creating an environment where every student feels connected to learning.

Here’s a simple framework that any teacher can begin using tomorrow:

The 5 E’s of Engagement

1. Energy — Your tone sets the cognitive load.

2. Environment — The room communicates expectations.

3. Entry — How students begin determines how they continue.

4. Experience — Movement, modeling, pacing, proximity.

5. Empowerment — Student ownership, accountability, and celebration.

This framework guides the design of many lessons teachers experience at Get Your Teach On.

When engagement rises, achievement follows — and teachers feel the difference immediately.
