520 |a This paper asserts the central function of creativity as a basis of approach to English teaching as an art. Creative writing is discussed as one attempt to discover, release, and enrich the potentialities of being and to give order and structure to the inner world of the child. In order to develop creativity in children, teachers are encouraged to: become aware of how children's inner problems are symbolized; understand literature and art, in terms of symbolic meaning; and experience creative exploration themselves. Effective response to creative writing is discussed. Appendix A lists books on creative writing and on the nature of children and their inward developments. Appendix B suggests equipment and practical points for approaching creative writing, such as class size and structure and various activities designed to elicit initial responsiveness. Commenting papers on the nature and concept of creativity, a final statement on Holbrook's paper, and a proposal for an in-service course for teachers on creativity are included. (LL)
