Coming up with ways to spark creativity in the classroom takes time, but it’s so worth the time spent! In this episode of the Fueling Creativity in Education podcast, Dr. Cyndi Burnett and Dr. Matthew Worwood welcome Dr. Victoria Waller, an award-winning reading specialist and educational therapist who’s been helping children with reading and learning differences for the past 40 years. Victoria is also the author of Yes! Your Child Can: Creating Success for Children with Learning Differences.
Listen in as Victoria highlights creative techniques teachers can use to help students who “don’t enjoy learning.” She speaks on the valuable relationship between parent-led learning and teacher-led learning, along with how to engage children in learning activities that empower confidence in them.
Plus, Victoria gives advice to educators who want to inspire creativity in students when they themselves don’t feel creative. She also gives insight into strategies you can use to spark interest in high school students when learning about topics they aren’t easily engaged in.
“Children with differences are geniuses of our time.” – Dr. Victoria Waller
