| PWA Lead | This activity requires creativity and flexible thinking. Challenge each other to see the world in a new way by coming up with the wackiest uses for household items. |
| PWA Materials | small household objects |
| PWA Progress Marker | Thinks of unconventional uses for items consistently;Thinks of some unconventional uses for items;Thinks of more and more unconventional uses for items |
| PWA Question Body | How many unconventional uses did {LEARNER_FNAME} think of for the object? |
| PWA Tags | Imagination/ Pretend |
| PWA Try this | Pick a common household object, such as a pencil, paperclip, or spoon. Then, ask {LEARNER_FNAME} to come up with as many different uses for that object as {SUBJ_PRONOUN} can. They can be as wacky or funny as {SUBJ_PRONOUN} wants! For example, while a pencil is usually used for writing or drawing, it could also be used as drum sticks, to tie up your hair, or to play fetch with the dog. Set a timer for 2 minutes, and record each of the ideas. Once time is up, count how many {SUBJ_PRONOUN} came up with! |
| PWA Variations | For even more ideas, try combining two objects (for example, a pencil AND a paperclip) to see what ideas {SUBJ_PRONOUN} comes up with for using the two together! |
| PWA What to look | As you record each of the ideas, consider how unconventinal or original each use is. You can also pay attention to how quickly {LEARNER_FNAME} generates ideas. |
| PWA Why this matters | Looking past the conventional uses for an item requires divergent thinking, a form of creativity where you come up with a lot of different ideas. Practicing divergent thinking is important to improve our abilities to come up with multiple ideas and solutions for the same problem. |
| PWA Question Response Option first | All the uses were typical uses for that item or couldn't think of anything different ;Mostly typical uses with 1-2 unconventional uses ;A few (2-3) unconventional uses ;More than 3 unconventional uses |
| PWA Question Response Option second | 1;2;3;4 |
