What is Genius Hour you ask?
Genius Hour is time set aside in class for students to study their passion on a new idea or skill once a week for a set amount of time. Why is Genius Hour important? Students take ownership in their own learning. They learn about something they want to learn about. Genius Hour sparks curiosity, and students have an opportunity to become their own Genius. Genius Hour encourages life-long learning, imagination, perseverance, self-awareness, adaptability, as well as other life-lessons. |
