Inventive mind in science: creative thinking activities
Creativity is not just the gift of a select few-it can be tapped in all, as the Eberts demonstrate in this fascinating book. They offer an in-depth discussion of creative thinking and its role in science, along with more than 50 exciting, mind-stretching activities that integrate the processes of creativity and invention into the science curriculum.
These will help you encourage imagination, creative thinking, problem solving, and higher-order thinking skills in your students. Emphasizing process over product, the authors discuss the theoretical background, different levels of inventing, and how to integrate science and the inventing theme with other subject areas. Grades 4-8.
