💡 Creative Thinking VS Being Correct

---

Encourage creativity over perfection. Teach that there can be more than one solution and that imagination is valuable.

Host “What if?” days with open-ended questions (e.g., What if gravity stopped for a minute?). Use drawing or storytelling to let kids show creative ideas.

Students love being imaginative without fear of being “wrong.” It boosts their confidence and thinking skills.

•Is there only one “right” answer to every question?
•Can creativity be more useful than being correct?
•Have you ever solved something in your own unique way?

@Sanaa Creativity often leads to the most meaningful learning! I’ve seen students come up with brilliant ideas when they weren’t limited by the fear of being “wrong.” Sometimes, their unique approaches solve problems in ways I hadn’t even considered. It’s a great reminder that there isn’t always just one right answer.

Encouraging creativity over perfection really opens the door for students to take risks and explore their own thinking. I love the idea of “What if?” days — they invite curiosity and spark deeper thinking in such a fun way!

Those reflection questions are gold. I’ve seen how allowing multiple approaches to a problem, especially in subjects like math or science, helps students feel more ownership over their learning. When they realize their ideas matter even the “wild” ones confidence and critical thinking flourish.

Definitely inspired to try a “What if?” session soon!
