Classroom Projects are Shared in Genius Hour Book
I collaborate with a wonderful teacher in Indiana named Don Wettrick. He has helped me make my classroom a place where students are encouraged to be innovative and creative. He often Skypes with our students and shared ideas and feedback on their projects. Mr. Wettrick recently wrote an amazing book titled Pure Genius: Building a Culture of Innovation and Taking 20% Time to the Next Level. He shared our classroom story in his book and shared many of the projects that we worked on last year. We have already started on our projects for this year and we have some BIG things planned. I cannot wait to see what the students learn and their products at the end of the semester!
