CREATIVITY
Creativity is thinking of new ideas and learning how to make them happen.
All things have been created through Him and for Him. Colossians 1:16
Students are taught a concept and then are free to express their own creativity through open-ended art projects. Projects such as Science Fair and History Fair also provide opportunities for creativity in structure and style.
Parents are encouraged to foster a deeper understanding of the creative process by embracing different types of making. Children express creativity through all kinds of projects: drawing and painting, making jewelry, creating soapbox cars, baking desserts, building with Legos, or creating games and animations through Scratch programming. Children can learn about the creative design process through all these activities.
