Sir Ken Robinson says that everybody is born with creativity, and the creativity diminishes with education. There are more kids today than ever being placed on medication for ADHD. They have being diagnosed by doctors as being over active or maybe their just over creative. The creativity of kids is not being nurtured in the education system. We are losing talented kids but we refuse to change the way we teach. The funding is lacking for the arts and their is no time in the class room for anything other than math and language. There are no room for mistakes. The kids are taught to pay attention, sit down, and be quiet. The class clown , the dancer, the singer, the artist can we honestly expect them to sit down, be quiet, and pay attention for eight hours.
Just like the dancer that was mention in the video, these kids are unable to sit still for an entire day. They learn different than most students. There creativity is there math and language arts.
