Many kids don't like to go to school. Genius hour has made kids think differently about going to school, they enjoy it. Kids are saddened when they have to miss school because of snow, or other circumstances. Genius Hour gives kids the ability to express themselves instead of following the daily routine of work, work, work. This is more than just a fun project, it helps kids learn. Kids are learning about other things and getting to have fun while doing it. Parents like the idea of this project because they're seeing how much there children enjoy it. Some kids even say that they are getting a higher self esteem by doing these. When parents, kids, and teachers all enjoy a project it is a positive thing to be seen at school. It teaches you that it is okay to not succeed from the start, you can always try again and hope things work out better this time. Genius hour is making a positive impact to many schools and communities.
Taking this all into consideration, approaching my genius hour I can see that it really does have an impact and when I go to do my project I will know that it is something to look forward to. Although i have not started as much as I would like to so far, seeing all of these posts from other students who enjoy this makes me excited to get further into it. I also like to see that even if my project does not work out that I can try again and not just be let down by the first try.
