Our project is about teaching people how to play basketball. We are going to help all we can. We can teach people all over the world to play this sport with our video. If you like to watch basketball you would like to watch our video. I learned how to work more with the computer. During Genius Hour my partner and I learned more about basketball. I feel good about Genius Hour .I felt awesome because we were the first class to do it. I felt cool and like a genius because of the name Genius Hour. It was super fun. I loved 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 really enjoyed working with you Rhett, and I hope you continue to use iMovie, you were a natural at it!
