A1: Ss need outlets to demonstrate their knowledge in outside the box ways that fit their style. Creativity fuels engagement. #6thchat

Teachr4 Mar 21 @ 9:09 PM EDT

A1 Creativity allows some Ss to excel in areas that may be a strength for them. #6thchat

RunnerGirl13_1 Mar 21 @ 9:10 PM EDT

A1) Creativity allows students to break out of linear thinking, allows for self-expression, and . . . is fun. #6thChat

Question 2 is on the slide! #6thchat

TORI_Parde Mar 21 @ 9:12 PM EDT

A1:Ss have to have an opportunity to learn more than we thought possible. Building upon each other's creativity=new possibilities. #6thchat

pjcerullo Mar 21 @ 9:12 PM EDT

A1: Creativity can be thinking outside the box, making a product, infusing art, or giving Ss an outlet to show their learning. #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator Mar 21 @ 9:12 PM EDT

This is great! Yes...it is what separates students into individuals. I love that! #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator Mar 21 @ 9:13 PM EDT

A2) It doesn't mean you must be artistic or crafty; it means you look at problems w/an eye toward making not obvious connections #6thchat

HowardKiyuna Mar 21 @ 9:13 PM EDT

A1: I think in the creative process lives, problem solving & empathy. It's all a form of wondering/connections. Not just art. #6thchat

pjcerullo Mar 21 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A2: I connect creativity with out of the box thinking. It could be solving a problem in a unique way as much as painting. #6thchat

Mr_Lisek Mar 21 @ 9:14 PM EDT

A2: Creativity is a thinking process. How you look at a problem or project in a different way from others around you. #6thchat

Ss have been so compliant this year, Having to really get them to break out. Working hard "trying" to be creative. #6thchat

In reply to @mrskochheiser

In a way, creativity is the opposite of compliance. This is something many are not used to...sadly. #6thchat

Creativity is defined by the individual learner. Limiting creativity by 1 definition is like saying you only teach 1 type of Ss #6thchat

valeriehu6 Mar 21 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A2: Creativity is stretching yourself past the first thought to think in a new way. It's critical thinking and problem solving! #6thchat

Don't forget to follow one another! #6thchat

RunnerGirl13_1 Mar 21 @ 9:18 PM EDT

A2) IMO, creativity is having original thought or expression. Trying something unexpected. Can be applied outside the art room. #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator Mar 21 @ 9:12 PM EDT

Creativity is thinking outside the confines of comfort, pushing your boundaries, & inspiring yourself and others with your vision!🎨🎉#6thchat

Mr_Lisek Mar 21 @ 9:22 PM EDT

A3: Ss have a variety of project choices to demonstrate their learning. Guided only by the rubric of how it will be assessed. #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator Mar 21 @ 9:22 PM EDT

Such an important point. As we "prep" our Ss for success on tests, we teach "right" & "wrong" ways to think not creative #6thchat

pjcerullo Mar 21 @ 9:23 PM EDT

A3: Playdough, drawing posters, creating comics, and choice boards. This yr I am trying "Show what you know" assessments. #6thchat

mrskochheiser - Moderator Mar 21 @ 9:24 PM EDT

Question 4 is on the slide! #6thchat

Teachr4 Mar 21 @ 9:24 PM EDT

Not sure. Could be a systemic issue, not used to having a voice, possibly fear of "doing it wrong". Still pondering. #6thchat

In reply to @mrskochheiser

mrskochheiser - Moderator Mar 21 @ 9:25 PM EDT

A4) No. I believe some have more natural "talent" in an artistic sense, but creativity is a process & one that we can all learn #6thchat

rolandteach Mar 21 @ 9:27 PM EDT

A4: Everyone is creative. If we aren't seeing the creativity in Ss it's b/c we haven't found their passion. The two go together. #6thchat

We used them to show connections between characters in Drums, Girls & Dangerous Pie. Ss seem to enjoy them. #6thchat

They really got into it. We did it as a read aloud as a grade level. Our teaching team is going to order the sequel. #6thchat
