We have talked to our gym teacher and he said we could come teach his class a physical exercise or game for his class. He would film and take pictures of us during the session to prove that we did it. We will be completing this around next week and then we will be done with our prject.

We plan on teaching a class about the fundamentals of sports. We will take videos and pictures of exactly what we are teaching the kids. We would like to teach the class for about one week before the end of the school year
In the article "'Hidden Figures' Inspire Connecticut Girls", it talks about how 80 High School girls were inspired by the film. After watching the film the girls felt inspired and motivated to not be afraid to take a chance and try to move forward in any of the STEM fields. Many of these girls didn't know that women were behind the first man on the moon. After finding this out the girls were surprised and also a little proud.
After the film, the girls listened to a panel of STEM role models. This panel encouraged curiosity, analytical thinking and perseverance to overcome the obstacles that being a woman comes with. In today's society, women still face obstacles. Women of color have it worse. With how evolved everything has become, you would think that our views of each other would evolve also. If we can encourage girls, and children of color, that they can accomplish just as much as those who have it easy, then the world can become so much better. Everything will become so much better Cloud's purpose was to compare being born a genius, or becoming one. Many believe that you can only be born a genius, others believe that you have to work for it. Cloud says "Still, genius can be very hard to discern, and not just among the young." So Cloud is still uncertain of his own view of what genius is. We as students can not shy away from learning. If we apply ourselves and work hard, we can still accomplish so much, and learn much more.
Mr. Cowens 3-D printer is more like our genius hour project because it was something that inspired him and interested him. He wanted to be able to create items in 3-D and make objects can help kids with disabilities. He put his time and own money into this project and went through and created it. This ties into exactly what we are doing in our genius hour and is very creative and fun. Which is exactly how our projects should be.
The author is saying that you don’t have to be a genius in order to do genius hour. Genius hour is meant for creativity and positive thinking. They do not have to be “pure smart” in order to be a genius. Geniuses look at problems in many different ways. They produce and make their thoughts possible. Since we're writing a book, we will have to use some of these strategies to finish and complete our books.
Within in the first few months, we plan on getting good ideas together and writing children books. Our plan is to write as many as we can in the amount of time we have. The whole goal is to make a book or books that the children enjoy reading and will continue to read them over and over again.
This article is representing the importance of genius hour. About a kid whose favorite part of schools genius hour. So when the snow days added up, she was always missing genius hour. It’s good for the kids to get their minds off the stress of grades and do something that they want to enjoy working on. It gets their mind thinking in a way that they just normally don’t. From this article, I learned that this project can create some bumpy roads for you. That being said, failure will occur during this project and you have to battle through this. I learned that this is not an assignment from your teacher. It should be a project you’re interested in and want to do!
