Schools all across the globe are constantly spending money so that the end result for their students is success. For example, at Plymouth High School students do not have a creative thinking class which is continually jeopardizing the school and the students. This is because with the lack of creativity students obtain they are unable to pass classes because of their inability to solve problems and find solutions in different ways. Due to this it makes the schools success rates decline and makes it so that incoming eighth graders or transfer student do not want to attend Plymouth High School. Without new students coming to the high school less money is coming in. Not only this, but Plymouth High School feels that due to the students bad grades in classes they need to create new and more interesting classes which is very costly. If we were to implement just one class these problems would not exist. Money would not be spent on paying teachers for irrelevant classes or subjects that students do not have an eagerness to learn about. Also, students that are getting ready for the next step in their life whether it is moving to the PHS or transfering to PHS will see that our school is successful resulting in them wanting to come. The implementation of this class at Plymouth High School will provide students will greater odds of finding the cure for cancer, becoming a cardiothoracic surgeon, or inventing the next Apple Iphone. Massive amounts of money will be saved if the creative thinking classes are implemented in

    On April 28, 1992, Chris McCandless stepped foot into the woods, a journey that would last four months, coming to an end much earlier than he would’ve hoped. In August of 1992, just four months after Chris walked alone into the wild, his perishing body was found by a party of moose hunters. Chris went into the wild hoping to get away from corrupt society and to live a transcendentalist lifestyle.

The seeds themselves are not what killed Chris, it was the amino acids in the seeds that caused him to slowly become paralyzed due to his malnutrition and physical state.…

    My advice to makayla is to never get stuck on one question no longer than five minutes. It's okay to skip a question and come back to it later once you have answer all of the other questions. It's also okay to guess intelligently on some of the questions. I feel that you shouldn't always linger on the same questions, because that can cause you to loose most of you time on the test.

    Creativity, an essential skill that can simultaneously help advance the world and communicate different perceptions of an idea, has gradually declined since 1990. Original ideas are vital when it comes to problem solving, technological advancements, communication, and much more. If the public worldwide stops creating new ideas, the world will experience a plateau rather than growth in development. In order to boost creativity in the population, it is best to start at the foundation of all skills, school. Supported by a scientific study and personal experience, creative thinking should be taught in school, because without explicit practice of thinking creatively, the mind begins to lose that skill.…

    Even within Math and Science, creativity is required in order to grow and move forward. New ideas have to be created for the world to evolve, but with the stifling of creativity, and the creation of a school system where making mistakes can cost students grades, college admissions, and ultimately their future, putting new ideas out into the open can be intimidating. This renders the education system counterproductive and creates leaders and innovators who succeed despite the structure of their education system instead of because of it. Creativity is a defining trait of civilization and should not be…

    Educating the Whole Child: Where Have the Arts Gone Sir Ken Robinson, Professor Emeritus, author, educator, and public speaker advising on the importance of the Arts in schools to foster creativity in children, was videotaped at a TED conference where he asked the question, “Do Schools Kill Creativity?” The overall message is that the creative spark is being educated out of our children in public schools. Robinson states, “Creativity now is as important in education as literacy, and we should treat it with the same status. (Robinson 2:56) Young children are not afraid try new things, often have ideas which we adults squash, and our educational system is geared away from kindling that spark of the creative gene.…

    Creativity is a word that is heard throughout our time in school, however as you get older the word becomes less important because it has nothing to do with your “essential” subjects, or so some think. In the video we were asked to watch I could not help but agree on everything Sir Ken Robinson had to say. His ideas and way of thinking are remarkable and I found myself hanging on to every word and going back to listen to certain parts of the video again. I do, in fact, believe schools kill creativity, Robinson talks about how we as people do not grow into creativity, we grow out of it, or are better yet educated out of it. During elementary school I remember attending a music and art class every other day of the week and it was a chance for all of the students to be creative.…
