A "Pause for Words"
An Aerosolized Thought
How long does a word linger in the air
after it’s spoken?
Dismantled: A soggy leaf, underfoot;
Eternalized: a cotton seed, out of reach.
How far
does it stray?
And where will it take us
if we learn to listen?

Teachers are some of our state’s best creative problem solvers and innovators. Great educators take risks, learn, reflect, and collaborate. Those same attributes are the building blocks of creativity. The Summer Institute for Creative Teaching, which began in 2023, will return in 2024 with an expanded set of sessions, offering Indiana educators the chance to gain skills and knowledge on incorporating creativity into the classroom.
