There are definitely times when I think I am creative in the classroom. I know that I attempt to present each lesson in a creative way or at least give create practical examples for understanding the concepts. It is definitely difficult to be over-the-top creative with every lesson. That kind of creativity takes a lot of time to develop and prepare for. Hopefully after being able to teach the same subject in the same grade at the same school I will be able to build more creative lessons. I know that when teaching math I always think of creative examples to help my students understand. I give them some of the same ideas that I used myself as a student.
I know that with a little more time and experience I can make more of my lessons creative. It takes time to figure out what works for kids, and develop a resource supply to pull ideas from when teaching anything.
