Conformist and compliant pupils make for quieter classrooms, it's true, but creativity is what inspires and motivates children to get out of bed in the fi rst place - whether they are five or fifteen. The question for usas teachers is: how do we create a climate in our classrooms in which children's creativity is truly nurtured and those all important'eureka moments' can proliferate?The Little Book of Creativity will help you to identify, nurture, reward and assess creative behaviour in your classroom. With their strong traditions of authoritative teaching, propositional knowledge, established values and an overemphasis on formal assessment, our classrooms may not seem, at fi rst glance, to be ideal places in which creativity may fl ourish, but there are opportunities there if you search hard. Rather than working against our established system of schooling, the advicein this book will help you to make the best of it, with the aid of some very effective and time-efficient ways of nurturing creativity in your classroom.
