Hour of Code 2015

Yes, it is nearly here! The third annual international Hour of Code! And it is the third time NPS students have taken the challenge to code for one  hour.  Actually, some people I know would prefer to do this most of the day. Forget English, Maths etc….

Today, I heard that some of those super geeks will be even happier.👏😍 there is a ( whisper) Minecraft game this year.

Guess who will be choosing that option?

 

Moving on with Genius Hour projects

Great to see so many students adding details about their Genius Hour work, including photographs. (Thanks, Tynan, for being camera man.)

if you can show me that you are keeping a record if your task, I can move your Trello card to the next stage.

See me if I need to do this for you. You should be proud of your efforts as independent learners. Don’t forget to show your family where you have got to, and the problems and challenges you are facing.

We have been lucky to have Fraser’s mum and Gracie’s dad on our team to help.

Genius Hour planning

Almost everyone has decided on their Genius Hour project for Term 2. Once I have approved your mission statement, I will add details to your card on Trello. https://trello.com/b/gb9eiFV2/genius-hour-flowchart

This is where you can share your progress with your family.

We will begin our class blogs next term and you will be able to post photos and ideas about how it is going on your edublog.
