WELCOME TO GENIUS HOUR!!!
After changing to our new seats for the new semester, the class was introduced to Genius Hour. The goal of Genius Hour is to engage students through inquiry problem solving and critical thinking. Many students are interested in science but may want to pursue a branch of science that is not covered during the typical class curriculum. Genius Hour allows students the flexibility to choose a topic, research the content that is necessary to learn about their topic, and then solve a problem or present about a topic they are passionate about without the constraints of the typical teacher driven instructional time.
To introduce the idea, students watched this Prezi. Genius Hour will be held on single period days Second Semester.
