Happy New Year!

I hope that you all had a wonderful winter break! I cannot believe that this school year is already half-way over!

Before we dismissed for the break, we had many students present either their Genius Hour projects, which are their self-selected projects, or their group projects about Acceptance!

I must say, that I have been very impressed with the many presentations that have  gone above and beyond our rubric that we created. We had students create trivia games and hand out prizes to audience members after their presentations, we had students give tutorials on how to create and decorate various treats, and we had many students present in very original and creative ways!

As the new year begins, some students will still need to present their learning as we continue to work through our unit on Acceptance. Throughout this semester, Genius Hour will continue as the students are greatly engaged in their topics of interest!

I am very excited to see what this semester will bring!
