Ken Robinson Says Schools Kill Creativity



         I firmly agree with all of Ken Robinson's views. He has views that fall completely in line with my way of thinking. I believe that if more people could have a broader way of thinking, as he seems too, then students wouldn't have issues of lessening creativity as they age. The arts and music programs and in schools would not be in jeopardy if children's creativity was still prevalent as it was years ago. All children are different, and we as educators have to recognize that. Not all children understand or enjoy core subjects. In addition, not all children can learn those subjects with out the integration of music or art. We must continue to integrate the arts and forceful creative thinking, outside of Math or Reading word problems, in the classroom and in everyday lessons. Though it is hard, this is all our job as teachers.
