Discovering Ancient Civilizations: Activities to Encourage Creative Thinking (G7018AP) $11.95 $5.98

This resource teaches students about archaeology and provides opportunities for exploring a variety of ancient civilizations. The open-ended activities were designed to extend the imagination and creativity of your students and to encourage students to examine their feelings and values. Specifically, they focus upon the cognitive and affective pupil behaviors described in Williams’ Model: fluent thinking, flexible thinking, original thinking, elaborative thinking, risk-taking, complexity, curiosity, and imagination.

Students must learn to recognize problems and to produce and consider a variety of alternate solutions to those problems. Teachers, therefore, should urge students to defer judgment of their ideas until they have produced many alternatives. They should also encourage them to let their imaginations run wild so that their ideas include clever, unusual alternatives as well as the more obvious ones.
