As we enter a new year, it is easy to see that the children and teens of today face unique challenges! One way to prepare these children for solving difficult problems is to foster their ability to solve problems CREATIVELY. The link below will direct you to my Winter/January unit,
Learning in a Winter Wonderland,
which contains several activities designed to foster creative thinking in your students in case you are interested in purchasing:

Creative thinking is a theme you will see throughout most of my learning resources and interdisciplinary units. Encourage your kids to stretch their minds, look at things differently, compare seemingly unrelated objects to each other, etc.! These skills will be invaluable as we head into the next decade. Happy 2011, everyone! Shannon :-)
