The Issue: How should the land around water systems be used?
Imagine you live in a town near a lake in Saskatchewan. For drinking water, the town uses
ground water from a local well. The ground water comes from an aquifer that sits below land
that is being developed for a feedlot.

ELA Genius Hour
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

The goal of Genius Hour was to get students more engaged in the learning process and to help instill the idea of lifelong learning. Students were asked to brainstorm what their passion was. Students then had to develop an inquiry question related to their passion. Then they had to decide how they would like to show what they learned. Then, students spent time researching about their projects. They were given one hour each Friday to work on their projects. It was an exciting project that students looked forward to working on each week! Because these projects were quite large, they did not all finish at the same time. As students complete their projects, they were able to present what they did to the class.

End of Unit Critical Thinking
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

Throughout the year I have used this as a review for the end of each unit. I create five or six critical thinking questions that apply what we have been learning about. I print them on color paper and spread them around the room. I pair the students up, and have they move about the room solving the questions. I only have ten students in my class so I’m fortunate to have only five pairs at a time. I usually pair them up as sort of a strong and weak combination. This is an attempt to have them collaborate on the problems while using critical thinking.

There are a number of ways to use Genius Hour in the classroom. There are many web resources to view and access to help guide you along your Genius Hour path as well. I accessed Facebook as well and joined several groups that discussed ways to implement Genius Hour. As this was my first time trying this out with the students, there are a few things that I would adjust for next time, but here is my version!
In this project, students were allowed to choose a topic that interested them to create a large scale project on. Students were able to choose to do these projects on their own or in partners/groups. They filled out a proposal and then we met and discussed what they would be working on and what their products would look like.
Every day 4, I gave students one period (56 minutes) to work on their Genius Hour creations. Students were asked to create outlines of their projects and journal entries stating their progress. The final product could be their choice but they would be presented to the class in some way.
When beginning the project, we went over the Creativity Process and discussed the way that student would follow and use this process. We followed each step of the process as we went through the journey and discussed.
Students would receive marks on their overall project as well as their presentation. As well, they completed a self-assessment afterwards.

This lesson covers the following outcomes:
Outcome 7.1 – I can explore how movement and forces in the Earth’s crust, including earthquakes, volcanoes and mountainbuilding,
has added to the development of the theory of plate tectonics.
7.1 d. I can compare and contrast some of the catastrophic events (earthquakes, volcanic eruptions) of the past by on my
own.
7.1 h. I can describe how scientists measure the effects of earthquakes and volcanoes (e.g. seismology, Richter scale).
7.1 i. I can give examples of ways that science and technology can help reduce the effects of catastrophic events on people
and communities (e.g. building codes in earthquake zones, earthquake readiness training, reducing the effect of a volcanic
eruption).

Summary of Plan for Communication and Computer and Digital Technologies:

I wanted the students to have a realistic scenario in which they would have to display and use data to persuade an audience of a particular point of view. I thought of a sales pitch by a travel agent. I created 13 different scenarios for my 13 students. Each scenario detailed the names of each individual travelling, the reason for the trip, the group’s budget, the duration of the trip, and preferred location of travel. Student blindly selected a scenario. The student would assume the role of the travel agent and their sales pitch to the class using a Power Point presentation. They would use the rubric to guide the development of their presentations.
