We are going to try a genius hour with our Grade 9 GLE/ENG 1L class and our Grade 10 ENG 2L class. I love the idea and have my colleague Daniella (who will become a celebrity on this blog for the number of times I will mention her) and my new V.P. Chad Barrette on board.
Chad has arranged for us to see a genius hour in action at a local elementary school. I will let you know how it went after we get back from the visit.
I am also following #geniushour on Twitter to get ideas. I should receive the book I will be using for our mentor text today:
Have any of you tried a genius hour? Do you have any suggestions, cautions or advise?
