iMattFrat Oct 5 @ 8:08 PM EDT

A1 All of us are creative, those who realize it are relentlessly curious, sometimes dont enjoy conforming, and children at heart #novaedchat

BrianHerb17 Oct 5 @ 8:08 PM EDT

A1: interesting, funny, artistic, curious, thoughtful, unique, inventor, observer #NoVAedchat

tifferdu Oct 5 @ 8:08 PM EDT

A1. Every word that describes all people because all of them are creative. Some just don't know it yet. #NoVAedchat

Techy_Margaret Oct 5 @ 8:08 PM EDT

A1 creative people try new things, use ordinary materials to create extraordinary things, often think or view things differently #novaedchat

mrscapellan Oct 5 @ 8:08 PM EDT

A1 Driven, curious, informed #NoVAedchat

timstahmer Oct 5 @ 8:09 PM EDT

@iMattFrat @Techy_Margaret 😂😂 it's really funny because I also have a husband&kids lol when they came scrapbooking left 😂 #novaedchat

timstahmer Oct 5 @ 8:11 PM EDT

@iMattFrat I also like the idea of playful curiosity, something young children have and we seem to discourage in older kids. #novaedchat

cstar012 Oct 5 @ 8:12 PM EDT

Hello! My name is Caiti. A teacher candidate from Canada 🇨🇦 I love to sing, dance awkwardly, and Instagram 😝 #NoVAedchat

cstar012 Oct 5 @ 8:13 PM EDT

Someone who is creative is spirited, spunky, fun, enthusiastic, open minded! #NoVAedchat

tifferdu Oct 5 @ 8:13 PM EDT

.@Techy_Margaret Or how can we see their creativity for what it is. Just because it does not look like ours? #RedefineCreativity #NoVAedchat

Techy_Margaret Oct 5 @ 8:13 PM EDT

Hi Caiti! Glad you joined us tonight for #novaedchat @cstar012 I can relate to dancing awkwardly!

iMattFrat Oct 5 @ 8:13 PM EDT

.@Techy_Margaret theres books on creativity-I dont read them-to teach creativity, put kids in situations where they must create #NoVAedchat

timstahmer Oct 5 @ 8:14 PM EDT

@Techy_Margaret Creativity, like innovation, is relative. Something new to you is innovative. #novaedchat https://t.co/ttdiryWHtK

A1: it will give them more opportunities to express themselves! Not feel like they have to follow the same path 👍🏻 #NoVAedchat

tifferdu Oct 5 @ 8:16 PM EDT

.@iMattFrat @Techy_Margaret Yes, let them create whenever they need to or want to! #NoVAedchat

RashidaJGreen Oct 5 @ 8:16 PM EDT

@iMattFrat @Techy_Margaret I agree on putting kids in spaces they need to create.Teachers have 2be prepared to do this - let go #novaedchat

RashidaJGreen Oct 5 @ 8:17 PM EDT

A2: Creativity allows our students to demonstrate their knowledge and show their understanding #novaedchat

BrianHerb17 Oct 5 @ 8:17 PM EDT

A2 Creativity gives Ss a chance to demonstrate learning in their own way, in a way that excites them #NoVAedchat

specialtechie Oct 5 @ 8:18 PM EDT

A1: Letting S's be creative w/product creates ownership & better products because it comes from their own ideas & understanding. #NoVAedchat

mrscapellan Oct 5 @ 8:18 PM EDT

A2 being asked to be creative risk takers, they can better see applications of curricular concepts and strategies #NoVAedchat

timstahmer Oct 5 @ 8:18 PM EDT

@Techy_Margaret Young kids are naturally creative because they haven’t been told they’re not. How do we keep that in MS & HS? #novaedchat

tifferdu Oct 5 @ 8:18 PM EDT

.@Techy_Margaret Show them all the beauty they posses inside..the greatest love of...oh never mind that is a song.. sorry my bad #NoVAedchat

specialtechie Oct 5 @ 8:18 PM EDT

abctec Oct 5 @ 8:19 PM EDT

A1: innovative, tinkerer, willing, happy! #NoVAedchat

RashidaJGreen Oct 5 @ 8:19 PM EDT

@BrianHerb17 a way that excites them is key! Students need to feel connected to their learning #novaedchat

Techy_Margaret Oct 5 @ 8:19 PM EDT

I love this - some tips for nurturing a creative life: https://t.co/q2XDfsbYG1 #novaedchat

timstahmer Oct 5 @ 8:19 PM EDT

A2: Depends on what you mean by “learning”. There’s not much creativity involved with passing standardized tests. #novaedchat

mrscapellan Oct 5 @ 8:20 PM EDT

@tifferdu @Techy_Margaret esp in small children when it often looks like misbehavior! #NoVAedchat

JTillman1999 Oct 5 @ 8:20 PM EDT

A2 Creativity allows Ss to share their knowledge in unique personal ways .Learning transfers when it is authentic & meaningful #NOVAedchat

vste Oct 5 @ 8:21 PM EDT

@iMattFrat @Techy_Margaret And provide time: this video is an oldie but goodie https://t.co/qHxrRH9vFM #NoVAedchat

mrscapellan Oct 5 @ 8:21 PM EDT

@timstahmer ☹️ true #NoVAedchat

abctec Oct 5 @ 8:21 PM EDT

A2: Ss would be engaged. think more critically. have independence & willingness to try new things... not need ONE right answer #NoVAedchat

Mrosiemary Oct 5 @ 8:23 PM EDT

A1I would describe a creative person as someone who is willing to take risksmaybe even fail but use that knowledge to get better #NoVAedchat

tifferdu Oct 5 @ 8:23 PM EDT

A2. Creativity= process of problem solving so the improvement for the learning process would B greatly improved=better outcomes #NoVAedchat

Techy_Margaret Oct 5 @ 8:23 PM EDT

Oooooh Tim! Learning is much more than standardized testing! Settle down over there :-P #novaedchat @mrscapellan @timstahmer

timstahmer Oct 5 @ 8:24 PM EDT

@Techy_Margaret I know I’m a broken record (remember those, kiddies :-) when it comes to standardized testing. @mrscapellan #novaedchat

NoVAEdChat Oct 5 @ 8:25 PM EDT

Q3 How do you provide opportunities for students to be creative in your content area? #NoVAedchat https://t.co/ZBFe9urTfc

Mrosiemary Oct 5 @ 8:25 PM EDT

A2: creativity can help Ss learn in a new way which can also help them understand the material better! #NoVAedchat

Techy_Margaret Oct 5 @ 8:25 PM EDT

This one too: do we have to choose creativity or productivity? Are we recovering procrastinators? https://t.co/OhDaQ1DIW0 #NoVAedchat

tifferdu Oct 5 @ 8:26 PM EDT

.@iMattFrat @Techy_Margaret Sometimes I just have to tweet what pops in my head...not always best tho *Smirk* #NoVAedchat

abctec Oct 5 @ 8:26 PM EDT

A3: use "blank slate" software programs to show or demonstrate understanding or share learning #NoVAedchat

Techy_Margaret Oct 5 @ 8:26 PM EDT

A3 We need choices, chance for Ss to ask the questions, tell us WHY they solved/presented/chose what they did #novaedchat

specialtechie Oct 5 @ 8:27 PM EDT

There's a great section @burgessdave #tlap Creativity & T's say "You're lucky, you're creative". I don't have my book to quote. #NoVAedchat

JTillman1999 Oct 5 @ 8:27 PM EDT

@timstahmer CORRECT!!.THANKFULLY Ts are more intentional about providing rich activities S can respond to w creativity & heart #novaedchat

Techy_Margaret Oct 5 @ 8:27 PM EDT

One of my favorite tasks to do with Ss, draw a squiggle on a piece of paper. Their assignment is to turn it into a picture #novaedchat

mrscapellan Oct 5 @ 8:28 PM EDT

A3 always trying to balance time learning new skills with time to improvise using content we've mastered (Music Ed) #NoVAedchat

tifferdu Oct 5 @ 8:28 PM EDT

A3. Model a Growth Mindset and celebrate all mistakes as steps to success. Keep moving the goal post also. #NoVAedchat
