Abstract	Science teachers are often content to leave creativity to the arts and humanities classes. Fostering creativity in science, if attempted at all, is a challenge often relegated to the gifted classroom. But not just the privileged few have the capacity to be creative. Simply restructuring existing lessons can help promote creativity in all science students. Teaching for creativity can help students improve critical-thinking skills, motivation, and engagement and start to understand the role of creativity in developing new scientific knowledge. This article shows how to modify existing lessons and labs to promote creativity in the classroom. (ERIC).
