Watch the most watched TED talk of all time; almost seventy million views and counting: Sir Ken Robinson’s TED talk on Creativity: https://www.ted.com/talks/ken_robinson_says_schools_kill_creativity  

 (Note that Sir Kenneth died on August 21st of this year).  Then do the exercise below. 

 Below are nine dots arranged in a set of three rows. Your challenge is to draw four straight lines which go through the middle of all of the dots without taking the pencil off the paper. If you were using a pencil, you must start from any position and draw the lines one after the other without taking your pencil off the page. Each line starts where the last line finishes.

Try this now by quickly drawing nine dots on a piece of paper, as below, and have a go with a pencil. Place your pencil somewhere, draw four straight lines without taking your pencil off the page. Each line must start where the last line finished
