This creativity ESL lesson plan contains activities, PDF worksheets, and digital materials for B1 intermediate students. By the end of the lesson, students will understand and be able to discuss and define what creativity is, as well as look at and talk about how it shows up in different ways and places.
This ESL lesson plan on creativity starts out by having students define creativity and discuss its meaning and implications. They continue on to analyse and discuss quotes about creativity from important figures such as Albert Einstein and Donatella Versace. There is also an activity in which students look at and analyse some images and discuss what they think are the most creative products and objects.
Students watch an engaging animated video exploring the concept of creativity. Students engage in listening comprehension activities in which they identify examples of creative works mentioned in the video and complete sentences with nouns and adjectives.
After watching the video, students discuss the effectiveness and the creative aspects of the video. They then proceed to do a vocabulary activity in which they match adjectives with their definitions to understand the descriptive words used in the video. This is followed by an activity in which students identify the adjective endings ( -tial, -ful, -ing, -ive) that fit given nouns/verbs.
In this activation, students participate in brainstorming tasks where they think of and discuss their creations from their past, present, or future. They then work collaboratively to describe the reasons, processes, values, and feelings related to their creations.
