All of the children in your classroom will sparkle with creative ideas and whimsical insights when you offer them a "mind sparkler!" What is a mind sparkler? It's an exciting activity that challenges your students to develop their creative thinking skills. And, Mind Sparklers is a collection of such activities. From imagining what would happen if you could only say "please" on Thursdays, to rewriting proverbs, to designing a coat of arms, Mind Sparklers Book 2 will grab the attention of every student in your classroom.
Each activity is designed to help students develop a specific creative thinking skill. The skills, drawn from the work of E. Paul Torrance, are defined and discussed in a special teacher's section of each book. Each activity is correlated to a specific discipline of study (e.g., language arts, social studies, and so forth). But, the real fun of Mind Sparklers is in watching children grow with each creative activity!
More activities to increase creativity in the classroom include Mind Sparklers Book 1 and Mind Stretchers.

R. E. Myers began his career in education as an elementary teacher in Santa Cruz County, California. From there he moved to Los Gatos, California, and became a middle-school teacher and coach. Then he started a quest for higher degrees, which led to moves to Oregon and Minnesota, where he was fortunate enough to become a graduate student of E. Paul Torrance. That association led to a variety of experiences in the field of creative thinking, including the publication of Creative Learning and Teaching, the prize-winning book he co-authored with Dr. Torrance.
Dr. Myers became a college and university professor and simultaneously launched a career as a writer and curriculum specialist, eventually ending up in Oregon as a researcher, filmmaker, and curriculum specialist. In recent years he has concentrated on writing creative thinking materials for primary and intermediate grades and writing materials for the character education curriculum, including his Respect Matters, which was honored with a Teachers Choice Award.
