This document discusses ways to encourage creativity in the classroom. It describes several activities teachers can use, including a shipwreck activity where students work in groups to decide which 5 items they would take if stranded on a deserted island. Another suggested activity is blackout poetry, where students select words from a written page to create a new poem. The document emphasizes that creativity takes time and open-ended questions or problems with multiple possible answers. It encourages teachers to take risks and provide opportunities for creative thinking and expression.

Petroleum Industry Governance Bill 2016 Newsletter by Gbenga Biobaku & Co.Sandra Asuzu
The Petroleum Industry Governance Bill (PIGB) passed the second reading at the National Assembly on the 2nd of November, 2016 and was referred to the Joint Committee of the Senate on Petroleum Upstream, Downstream and Gas. A public hearing was organized by the Joint Committee on the 7th, 8th and 9th December 2016 with all stakeholders of the Nigerian Oil and Gas industry in attendance.
The PIGB aims at significantly improving the state of the petroleum industry by dealing with the institutional and governance structure of the industry. The Bill aims at achieving the following objectives;
• the creation of efficient and effective governing institutions with clear and separate roles for the petroleum industry;
• the establishment of a framework for the creation (out of existing Government-owned entities) of commercially oriented and profit driven entities that will ensure the restructuring and internationalization of the Nigerian petroleum industry;
• the promotion of transparency and accountability in the Nigerian petroleum industry; and
• the creation of a conducive business environment for operators in the petroleum industry.

This show helps teachers to call their students' attention in the classroom. Before starting your lessons, think well how you call your students' attention to you and your ideas. Think, Rethink to think more and more creative ideas of teaching.
I took my school-age class on a nature walk on the outskirts of our very large school yard to discover what might be there. The children never use this part of the yard so it is open to new exploration.
The children were asked to find items that were tall, short, bumpy, smooth, small, new, colourful and so on. They found all kinds of different things on our walk and became very excited about their discoveries. The inquiries made on the walk made for additional research and projects with the children. This project was a wonderful experience for myself and the children involved.
