introduction

It emphasizes the core role of innovation in social development and points out that developing students' creative thinking is the key to cultivating innovative talents. The "Chinese College Entrance Examination Evaluation System" and the "English Curriculum Standards for Ordinary High Schools" both emphasize the importance of innovative thinking. The paper takes 40 first-year high school students from a certain middle school in Chengdu, Sichuan Province as the research subjects. Using the five dimensional theoretical framework of creative thinking proposed by Lin Chongde, the paper investigates the development of creative thinking among high school students in the English subject through a questionnaire survey and the improved Torrance Scale. Research has found that the overall level of creative thinking among high school students in the English subject is not high, with uneven development in the five dimensions. Among them, fluency, summarization, and logicality are at a moderate level, while flexibility and uniqueness are weak. The paper suggests that teachers adopt targeted strategies in English teaching to promote the development of students' creative thinking, enhance language learning effectiveness, and achieve a positive interaction between creative thinking and language learning.

M-3P Creative Thinking Cultivation Strategy

In depth exploration of the application of M-3P teaching strategy in the development of creative thinking among high school students in the English subject. Creative thinking is defined as an intellectual quality that involves producing novel, unique, and socially or personally valuable products. The M-3P strategy includes four key elements: Material, Process, Product, and Personality, aiming to promote students' creative thinking by selecting teaching materials, designing cognitive activities, conducting practical activities, and cultivating personality traits.

conclusion

Propose the M-3P teaching strategy aimed at developing creative thinking among high school students in the English subject. This strategy combines creative thinking with language teaching through disciplinary integration, promoting students to generate new ideas and creative outcomes in language learning. The M-3P strategy is consistent with Kaufman's four level theory of creative products, emphasizing that students can achieve Mini Creativity, Little Creativity, and Professional Creativity in language learning. The design of teaching activities should be based on teaching content, creative thinking processes, and product generation that require teaching content as a carrier. The creative thinking process and outcomes are interdependent, and active student participation is key. The M-3P strategy helps students develop creative thinking and personality, laying the foundation for future development.
