PARENT WEBINAR: FAMILY PASSION PROJECTS: UTILIZING GENIUS HOUR TO LEARN, GROW, AND SERVE TOGETHER
TUESDAY, APRIL 4, 2023, 6:30 P.M.
Passion projects in the classroom give learners the opportunity to consider their own interests, passions, and purpose as they choose a topic to learn more about in an effort to impact others. But, what if this could be a family experience? In this webinar, I’ll share how families and classrooms can partner to make learning meaningful through the connections that the Genius Hour experience can provide. Learn the process that can be utilized, the skills that should be prioritized, and the outcomes that can be expected as we explore practical ways to make passion-based learning happen at home and at school. Presented with a live Spanish interpretation during the event.
