@LakeCountyES Looking forward to working with teachers on increasing student engagement!

@Kristenherrington Love the idea of having students brainstorm the worst possible solution to a problem to encourage divergent thinking!

[RoTorres @RoTorresCoach1]

@LakeCountyES ...encourage risk-taking engaging in brainstorming and asking questions such as "What would be the worst solution to this problem." Later, ask student to consider how to make some of those solutions better. #LC3Coachingspree @LakeCountyES @kristenherrington
