Sažetak
The open curriculum of extracurricular activities enables creativity, initiative, adaptability and flexibility of students and teachers. Extracurricular activities are the area of quality and pedagogically organized students’ free time, and a place for developing the entire personality of a student. Students can, via extracurricular activities, develop personal creativity, create new ideas, concepts, and solve problems. A positive pedagogical culture in extracurricular activities emphasizes the importance of upbringing in relation to education, and the function of teachers to transfer not only knowledge, but ethical values, positive values and beliefs, appreciation of students’ interests and abilities, the development of independence and encouragement of students' creativity as key competencies for lifelong learning. In this way, students and creative and flexible teachers co-construct the instruction, develop multiple intelligences, social competences, talents, creativity and critical thinking. Teachers' competencies, personality and affinity are the key factors that can liberate and stimulate students' enthusiasm, encourage creativity, and self-perpetuation. By participating in the development of the curriculum of extracurricular activities, students and teachers are motivated to work, as it encourages intrinsic motivation, enthusiasm, creativity and selfrealization. The aim of the paper is to present the co-construction of two extracurricular activities and the model of creative teaching and learning in the literary and robotic extracurricular activities of a Croatian elementary school in the Osijek-Baranja County. A systematic observation during the four initial school years reveals the features of creative teachers, creative teaching models and creative thinking techniques used in extracurricular activities.
