     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.......

    Everyone gets a baggie with 20 mini marshmellows and 20 toothpicks. They
    have ten silent minutes to come up with the tallest structure. I have done
    this in pairs too.
    They cant ask questions and the ones that done pay attention and start eating
    the marshmellows freak whent hey realize what they've done!
    It's a good ice breaker.
    Peace
