Creativity is fundamental to successful learning. Being creative
enables children to make connections between one Area of Learning
and Development and another.
To give all children the best opportunity for effective creative
development, GVS gives particular attention to:
- a stimulating environment in which creativity, originality and
expressiveness are valued - a wide range of experiences and activities that children can
respond to by using many senses - sufficient time for children to explore, develop ideas and
finish working at their ideas - children feeling secure enough to take risks, make mistakes
and be adventurous - valuing children's own ideas and not expecting them to
reproduce someone else's picture, dance or model, for example - opportunities for children to express their ideas through a
wide range of types of representation - resources from a variety of cultures to stimulate different
ways of thinking - opportunities to work alongside artists and other creative
adults
Other creative experience will include:
All encouraging close observation, developing deeper concentration
and improving listening skills.
- home corner play where new games and situation based on
personal experience can be created - music – time when children will be encouraged to use their
imagination in dance and drama - junk and collage work, involving construction, using glue,
scissors and new materials , cutting and sticking - drawing with a variety of tools – chalks, paint, pencils. Wax
crayons, charcoal etc.
All encouraging close observation, developing deeper concentration
and improving listening skills.
