We have been busy with genius hour in July. What do you think?

 

Genius Hour July on PhotoPeach

Our 3rd try at genius hour generally went well. Most children had something they really were passionate about. Some others still need some help coming up with their passion.

Elizabeth has been designing clothes and her mother even made one of her outfits.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Juchan has been learning how to make complex origami models.

Abbey is writing a play, Suzana is scrapbooking and Thembe is card making.

Patrick is working on his electrical circuits.

Izzy and Ella are creating amazing artworks.

Aidan and Daniel are designing and building an environmentally and wheelchair friendly house.

James and Oscar designed a soccer outfit which Oscar is modelling.

These are a few samples of the ideas 6M children have come up with. Keep looking for our next installment..

I thought we’d have genius hour again this term. Have you an idea of what you’d like to do? Post here to let me know.

Today we had our second genius hour. Some people were not organised with something to do. Next time we will make sure you know what you want to do. Try writing a list of ten things you like to do.
