I like how you have focused it around reading, but I like your "dreams" for genius hour too. I want to focus on having students ask good questions that lead to meaningful Inquiry. I am not entirely sure how to guide that process, but I'm going to give it a go tomorrow!Julie Clarkenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2941630785664397334.post-65830065933416340952012-10-14T19:04:21.474-05:002012-10-14T19:04:21.474-05:00Hi Joy,
I missed the last GH on Twitter. What did ...Hi Joy,<br />I missed the last GH on Twitter. What did I miss? It sounds as if you're happy with your GH so far. That's great!! Could you share with me your conferencing template. That sounds like something I could use to spice up my conferencing with students. It's hard to keep up with my PLN during school, and that's really when I need it!! Your post shows your enthusiasm and I'm so happy for you!<br /><br />I haven't done GH yet but my students are reading every day in class and most are reading at home. I'm very pleased with the progress of all of my students...even my RR's. They're not super consistent yet, but they're much better than they were before.<br /><br />I even had one of my RR's say in another class that he's now a reader. YIPPEE!!!<br />Have a good week.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2941630785664397334.post-21862326690455278262012-10-08T15:48:00.106-05:002012-10-08T15:48:00.106-05:00Thank you for taking the time to share your journe...Thank you for taking the time to share your journey. I have yet to start genius hour but plan to this year. I have also been trying to think of how to help my students become more interested in reading - to find a passion for reading. You have me thinking that maybe this is the route I could go this year with my genius hour. Incorporating the idea of discovering our passions along with focussing on the importance of being a reader may be the perfect fit for me. <br />You continue to inspire me with what you do and the passion you have for this professional. I am thrilled to be a part of your PLN!Mrs. Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06850775824978063125noreply@blogger.com
