Room Creativity

(1) How do you plan to address the room creativity expectation?  
I will have a number of different self-made chess display boards all over the classroom that I can easily manipulate to provide a challenge or a puzzle to the students. This will demonstrate a creative approach to teaching the students, seeing as they can have physical interaction with the board's themselves. 
(2) What activity ideas do you have for answer 1 or 2?
My answer 1 is to play against higher skilled opponents to learn from their experience. I might have students play against the computer on a higher difficulty making them experience what my answer actually entails. 
For my second answer( Study the games played by chess Grandmasters) I'm still not too sure about how to actually do it inside the classroom. However, I will probably just show a famous game move-by-move on the board and stop at certain points to get predictions from different groups as to how "Kasparov" will move next, therefore having the students actively participating.
