one of the modelplans provided.Another group built something out of their own imaginations.Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time.Hisconstructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home.Iwas delighted at the presence of such a student.Here was an exceptionally creative mind atwork.His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whosecreativity would infect other students.Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside.I ran the risk of losing those studentswho had a different style of thinking.Without fail one would declare,But Im just notcreative.Do you dream at night when youre asleep?Oh,sure.So tell me one of your most interesting dreams.The student would tell something
