HOW DRY ERASE WALLS FOSTER CREATIVITY



The “Wild Wednesday” Assignment

Expands Children’s Empathy and Worldview

Every “Wild Wednesday” during the school year, write a thought-provoking question for your students on the classroom’s dry erase wall. The question needs to be one that prompts the students to use their imaginations and visualizing skills while searching for an answer.


The Synonym Game

Builds Vocabulary and Improves Writing Skills

Write a word in the center of the classroom dry erase wall, then ask your pupils to come up with as many alternative words with the same meaning that they can think of while being as creative as possible and trying to push themselves to think beyond the most obvious choices.


The Shape Game

Fosters Visualization and Creative Thinking Abilities

The shape game is a fun and exciting recreational activity that children really enjoy as a pastime, but it can also serve as a valuable teaching and learning tool in the elementary or middle school classroom.


A Short Story Exercise
