Haiden's Reflection

    My project is about Red Foxes. I researched how they live and how they eat. This is all the stuff that I searched for. In the winter Red Fox eat meat like rabbits,deer,raccoons,squires and stuff like that. In the summer they will eat stuff like corn,berries,apples,grasses,acorns and cherries. They even will eat bugs like insects which makes up about a quarter of there food. They will eat fish from the sea.

   In my project I learned what they eat what the mos common thing is that they eat and what they do.I also learned that Red Foxes are not an endangered animal like the two humped camel .I also learned that the Red Fox digs holes to store it's food from other animals. I also learned that even though there name is the Red Fox it's not red it's orange. I learned that the Red Fox is often confused with the Canidee family which include jackals,wolves, and dogs.

    I feel like Genius Hour should be done every year in 3rd grade.  Genius Hour is the best thing I have done that was like a test.  I like it because we get to get on a computer and look things up.  I like it because we get to find pictures.  I also like it because we got to do a poster.

I have a lot of fun playing soccer.  I wanted to make a mini soccer game that would be fun to play.  I created my little game with a cardboard box and some paper people.  I think this game is going to be fun for people to play in pairs or by them selves.  They can kick the soccer ball and try to score a goal.   I had a lot of fun with Genius Hour.

GENIUS HOUR

WOW!  What a ride this project was.   I learned about Genius Hour at NCTIES and was very excited to start it with my class when I returned from the conference.   We are constantly telling our kids what they need to learn and they have very little choice in what they are learning.  This project is all them, they came up with their passion project.  We did several weeks of brainstorming and developing driving questions.  Once the students had their driving question they were off to do some research.   My students worked at their own pace and decided how much effort to put into the project. After the research portion of the project, the students how to chose how to present their information. Each student decided what they wanted to do.  Some explored iMovie and made incredible videos. Others wanted to dive into Google Slides and make a presentation.   We even had some Bare books created that will be in the library for the check-out rotation. ...

I made a cardboard city.  A cardboard city is made up of houses, bridges, and other buildings.  I liked Genius Hour and had a lot of fun.  I also gained a new best friend, Parker.  I like building and learned to have patience.  I loved Genius Hour.
