Genius Hour: Genius Genius Genius....

We are in the throws of our second Genius Hour project for the year. The children seem really engaged and motivated to take bigger risks this term and are trying out some interesting projects. 
Our big focus this term is to make our projects have a purpose and to take what I've called an 'enjoyable risk', ie; have fun but also, take a gamble and be prepared to fail. That's where the best learning occurs. 

Some projects I've been impressed with so far include boat building, documentary making, whakapapa-lineage research and the merging of Vietnamese and modern pop cultures together into a dance routine. 

Included are some photos of the projects on the go today.
