Creativity Counts

Creativity is the use of the imagination or original ideas, especially in the production of an artistic work. 
Creativity matters in education because it is what keeps things from being boring. If you have a creative way of teaching, then the kids will be more involved and enjoy learning a lot more rather being bored with out creativity. When kids have the chance to be creative they will most likely enjoy working more, too. 

Creativity is lacking in our school systems. We can fix this by teaching the same things, just in different ways. It is really quite simple. Instead of just giving notes and a test, do a hands on activity. The chances of them remembering what they learned in the activity are far more greater than what they would be if they were just taking notes. Creativity is important and needs to be incorporated with how teachers teach their students.
