Teaching Point
Brainstorming is a great way to get the creative juice flowing. Sometimes it really helps to break ideas into parts instead of trying to focus on the whole. Here are some things you should keep in mind when you're brainstorming as a class.
Make the tone positive and accept all ideas except for ones that are overtly inappropriate.
2. Have a visual focus. Visuals may include words, lists, drawings or anything that will help the students keep track of the conversation.
3. Go beyond the obvious. Encourage your students to move past the obvious answers and push them to think of new ones.
