Question

A teacher in your school is doing a unit on farm animals. She plans what she considers an "art activity" in which children trace a shape of a sheep, cut it out, and glue cotton balls on it. Using the information you've gained about creativity, describe 3 ways this lesson could be improved and tell why you would make those changes.

Answer 1

Creativity can be defined as the ability to generate new ideas and ways of doing things which are original and out of the box.

In the above case scenario this lesson can be improved in the following way:

• As farm animals arent just restricted to sheeps, the teacher can ask the kids to think of any more farm animals to go about with the activity.
• Sounds of the farm animals can be added for better and fun learning.
• A small skit can be prepared around the role of each farm animal in the farm.
