What went well with your Genius Hour project, and what did not work?
Overall, my Genius Hour was relatively easy to complete. I worked with another girl on my project which made organization easier. Also, because I had made a presentation of the Environmental Club, Mr. Olsen (one of the supervisors) was more keen on working with us. Moreover, once I had emailed Mr. Olsen he talked to Mr. Martonen, and now they will both be supervisors of the Environmental Club. Lastly, setting up a meeting with Mr. Smithson to get our club officially approved was simple. I just had to ask to meet in the morning, and the next day Gabby, Mr.Olsen, and I went to talk to him. We only had to wait one day for him to talk to the superintendent before he gave us the thumbs up. Now that we are up and running, Gabby and I are going to be meeting with our supervisors to start planning for next year.
If I had to pick one thing that did not work well during my planning of the Environmental Club, it would be timing. I should have started this club earlier in the year, or at least talked to teachers. Then we could have been planting flowers and a garden in present time. However, now I know to plan events earlier so they are accomplished.
