I appreciate Curiosity 2 Create and the Creative Thinking Network so much. I truly believe in what y’all are doing to help teachers be the best educators we can be. Knowing that there is a support system out there of other educators who also think creatively and are willing to help me develop better ways to help my students is an amazing thing. I have started trying to use the CREATE method more and I like the way it is making me think about what I am doing in the classroom and if it is productive or not. Thank you for all that you and your team are doing. I am excited to see what is next.

Dear Katie,
Thank you so much for joining our Design Café last week and sharing your incredible insights with the students. Your session was not only eye-opening but truly inspiring. The way you framed creativity, thinking, and learning sparked meaningful reflection and dialogue, and I know it left a lasting impression on everyone in the class.
Thank you also for the resources you shared—The CREATE Method and the guide on deeper thinking. These will be excellent tools for our students to continue exploring their own approaches to design and learning.
I also want to extend a special thanks to Julieanne for connecting us. It was truly powerful to witness the bond between teacher and student—seeing your impact on Julieanne and how it has evolved into a collaborative friendship was one of the highlights of the session. What a beautiful example of what education can do.
We’re grateful for your time, your stories, and your passion. I hope we can continue this conversation in the future—our students (and I!) would love to learn more from you. Warm regards,
Evrim
