Divergent thinking is the creative process of coming up with original ideas and new possibilities. Divergent thinking is really an exercise in creativity.
1st grade Idea Lab students got their creative juices flowing recently when they SCAMPERed a Donut. You might be thinking what do you mean by SCAMPER?
SCAMPER is a brainstorming strategy. SCAMPER is an acronym for Substitute, Combine, Adapt, Modify/Magnify, Purpose, Eliminate/Minimize and Rearrange/ReverseInventors may SCAMPER when creating a product. 
We also practiced Divergent Thinking by creating captions for memes.
We had some funny memes and some serious ones too!
Students made their own tangram creations-- it was fun creating our own!
We created some pretty awesome masterpieces around a few squiggles.
We are also wrapping up our Green Schools Quest project for Avian Restoration.
The students have been waiting to decorate their bird feeders and nesting boxes!!!

Proud of the effort and commitment the students have displayed in Idea Lab this quarter!Keep up the amazing work, 1st graders!
