Tin foil - it's a wrap!


From this:
To this:

Give pupils tinfoil to allow the kinaesthetic learners to generate ideas.
Rule:  5 minutes to create as many objects as possible. Creative generating is about quantity not quality!  Sort of like tangible thought-showering...

Models can lead to ideas for story, props, characters, product design, art...

Follow it up with SCAMPER.

A way to develop those ideas:

·         S = Substitute
·         C = Combine
·         A = Adapt
·         M = Magnify
·         P = Put to Other Uses
·         E = Eliminate (or Minify)
·         R = Rearrange (or Reverse)
Ask them: What if we turned it upside-down/zoomed in/stuck two together?
Very on trend and buzzy in education!
