Hi, is it possible you have the time to approach this like a project?

Once you've examined your setting as a whole and what its layout looks like can you see how creativity happens in it. Eg. where do children invent, design, create, build, cook, make music, dress up, play imaginatively, put together in their own way, plan independantly in their play/what to do next, notice where adult intervention influences play, if this is beneficial or interupts children's focus, where group play happens, solitary play happens and how those places support creativity - through social interactions, space to face, talk, be alongside, communicate, and through resources eg. 'loose parts

Maybe you can look at these areas separately and identify one or more that you'd like to implement or see changes made to it - sand, water, dough, paint, role play, music, food, construction, art, physical play, movement, dance and how books children look and feel their way through support and promote creativity.

Why do you feel that area needs to be changed?

How 'enabling' would you consider the area to be and how 'enabling' do the children think it is ie. can they do what they want, bring things to it and take things away, when want, how they want? - is it overused ie. really popular, busy and crowded or underused, children show little interest in what's currently offered.

What resources are in that area and how are new ones introduced.
Do well used items remain constantly available or are they on a rotation system.

Can children request, see or retrieve items independantly.

Maybe see how the environment supports creative fine motor activities and creative gross and loco motor activities.

This thread may help further

Hi, if you haven't been given any guidance for this take a look at page 23 of this creativity chapter.


Page 415 of the Heinemann handbook explains this assessment criteria by ..
Quote:

For this assessment critrion, you will need to show that the reflection you have done, about how you might improve the environment to enhance creativity and creative learning has enabled you to create a plan of action. As with other plans you will need to show that it is realistic and give reasons for the plan, together with expected outcomes for each area of change or development.
Suggested plan of action: Creating a programme of change to support creativity and creative learning

Best wishes

Help SOS 1.3 Explain The Difference Between Formal And Informal Creative Actoivity

That was helpful to clarify some of the previous threads , but this particular item "Explain the difference between formal and informal creative activity" seemed simple but is proving difficult to put into words, so far got for 'formal creative activities' stuff like structured adult led sessions where the children follow expected outcomes, and 'informal activities' covers creativity activities like hands on activities the individual is involved in themselves in whatever their activity is , think the answer needs to be expanded .............but lost for inspiration please any clues will be greatly appreciated at this time from anyone that has a real clue about what I need for this answer
