Modeling "Outside of the Box" Thinking

Teaching our students to "think outside of the box" is not an easy task, especially with the limitations we face these days in the elementary classroom. It is incredibly hard to find time to let our students explore and experiment which are the two key ingredients that lead to creative thinking! However, we NEED to make ourselves find the time and work it in when we can. Our students are the makers of the future and it is our responsibility (among thousands of other responsibilities) we have as their classroom teacher to provide these types of opportunities in a collaborative setting.
