Creativity is in the Bag!
Saints Cyril and Methodius School students have ample opportunity to flex their creative muscles.
Eighth graders at Saints Cyril and Methodius in Deer Park enjoyed an excellent exercise in flexing their creative muscles. Given a paper bag containing ten unrelated items, students had to quickly work in teams of six, to create and present skits using all ten items. A great deal of hilarity ensued as the teams presented the most imaginative scenarios.
In the words of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, “We cannot always build the future for our youth, but we can build the youth for our future.” Creativity wanes with every passing year for school-aged children and keeping the sparks of creativity alive is essential to developing the thinking skills that the next generation will bring into the workplace of our future.
