Students are falling behind.
Teachers are quitting faster than ever.
80% of students are falling behind in skills that students had in the 1980s, while over 50% of teachers have said they will likely leave teaching within the next three years.
You can fix that.

Meet the Author of the CREATE Method
Katie Trowbridge
During my 25 years of teaching high school English, I witnessed firsthand the decline in student engagement and the loss of passion for teaching among my own colleagues. I knew something needed to change, so I developed The CREATE Method with the help of some amazing teachers. My goal was to create professional development and coaching that teachers actually want. I now bring the CREATE Method to schools, conferences, and teachers nationwide.

Integrate Creative Learning
Examples of how to incorporate this approach
-
Assign open-ended projects that allow students to explore their creativity and express their thoughts and emotions
-
Incorporate storytelling and narrative writing into lessons, allowing students to develop their unique voices
-
Encourage students to design and build models or create inventions to solve real-world problems
-
Use puzzles or games to engage students in mathematical thinking
By incorporating creative thinking, educators can nurture students' curiosity, imagination, and innovation skills, preparing them for success in an increasingly complex and dynamic world.
