This was very helpful as I was looking into starting Genius Hour in my classroom. I recommended it to my PLC who may add this as a part of their curriculum as well.

Not what I really expected

Very inspirational book on bringing inquiry and innovation into the classroom. I am an elementary teacher and even though this book was geared toward high school, I took a lot out of this book.

Well shipped. No damage. Exactly what you expect.

This book inspired me to create a blog. I am implementing Genius Hour in my classroom this year and plan to blog about my students ideas! Thank you!

Easy read. Makes this concept accessible and exciting to undertake for teachers new and more experienced. I'm looking forward to taking these ideas into the classroom this fall!

The best book on 20% Time/Genius Hour out there. I've been through a whole heap of them and this one is the only one you'll ever need. Well worth the price tag.
