After completing Chapter 16, choose one of the “for reflection and discussion” questions on page 459 (with some modifications) to which to respond:

1. Why do you think it is important to encourage creativity in young children? What do you see as the key characteristics of creativity as young children (describe at least three)?

2. In two paragraphs, explain what important role adults play in developing and implementing creative arts activities for young children.

3. List and describe two music activities that you will want to use in your future early childhood setting. Why did you choose these activities, in particular?

4. What is the role of more structured activities for children in preschool or the primary grades?

Please number the question you choose (#1, #2, #3, or #4) and answer it fully in order to earn full credit. You should respond to two other students, even if their prompt differs from yours.
