Collaboration Creativity

What You'll Learn

๐Ÿง  You draw the head, your friend draws the body, another friend draws the legs โ€” without seeing each other's parts. Collaborative creativity produces surprising and hilarious results! Understanding creative teamwork is one of the building blocks of strong thinking. Here's how to do it: 1. Look carefully at the problem. What do you see? 2. Think about what you already know. Does this remind you of something? 3. Try an answer! It's totally okay to be wrong โ€” that's how we learn. 4. Check: did it work? If not, try something else! You're building your thinking muscles. The more you practice, the stronger they get!
