    >.........On day one of my Why Man Creates class, before I make seating charts
    or go over the course requirements, I give every student one of those clips
    (I can't think of the name of them) - the ones with the black head on them
    that you have to pull back the little handles to clip and release - and ask
    them to, in ten minutes comes up for 20 other uses for the clip other than
    holding paper. They are so perplexed that I am not following the normal day
    one routine that it takes them eight minutes to even start thinking about
    it.......
    ************************

    I find the idea of this thread fascinating. I would like to know how others
    discuss "creativity" in their classrooms and other tips, tricks, ideas to
    make kids more in tune with their creativity. Toodles.......
