Creativity Improves Competency
Improve academic performance by teaching students to harness their creativity.
How Does It Work
Much of the school day is filled with Focused Thinking while we concentrate on taking in specific information, answering questions, and creating work to demonstrate understanding.
Diffuse Thinking is a more relaxed state of mind that engages many parts of the brain simultaneously. This state of mind is how we process information, understand context, and make new connections. This state of mind emerges when we daydream.
Giving your students time to let their minds wander leads to a deeper and more meaningful educational experience that translates into a measurable improvement in academic performance.

Teacher Testimonials
“I am so excited for this strategic intervention that will relieve so much unnecessary doubt and paralysis in the classroom!”
“After becoming dysregulated from an argument with a friend this morning, (my student) was asked to choose a coping strategy. She chose Cloud Club all on her own. I realize now that this is the PERFECT coping strategy for her.”
“It was a nice built in “pause” to our day. I implemented it a 3rd time with my class and they were excited!”
