Description
The NAGC PK-12 Programming Standards indicate that creativity is an essential part of addressing the needs of students with gifts and talents. Gifted learners often struggle with tolerance for ambiguity, flexibility, risk taking and accepting the ideas of others. By developing creative habits of mind in their students, teachers can help gifted learners overcome these struggles. Focusing on Torrance's four aspects of creativity, participants learn ways to infuse creative-thinking strategies into daily lessons. Participants experience how incorporating improvisation and activities that promote vocabulary fluency and exploring perspective and collaboration can enhance students' creativity.
