Genius Hour-Reflection

This assignment has been very inspirational for me. It has giving me a little lift in myself to try new things and to find time to focus on me. Having my busy daily life I find it hard to find time for myself and to focus on something I enjoy. This project has given me that opportunity.

To see how I have progressed is eye opening. Like I mentioned before in another post, the fact that I struggled help me realize how rewarding it is to try new things. The feeling of accomplishment after this assignment was great and it has to do with how much I struggled and accomplished. 

I have always tended to stay away if I struggled at something giving the excuse that I'm to old for this. This has really given me something to think about on a daily basis. This has challenged me to try new things daily even if they seem challenging. 

I hope to bring this Genius hour assignment to my students in hope that they benefit from it as much as I have. I'm also looking forward to showing my students how far I have gotten on playing the guitar. This will show them that if I can do it anyone can do it.

  3. Yes! I agree that the project has forced us to take time for ourselves and to focus on something we want to learn better. You have come a long way from where you started. I am sure you will be an inspiration to your students when you share your progress with them.

Genius Hour-Expect Mutiny

This week has been a struggle to find time. We had family come from out of town and I found it very difficult to find time to practice. I had many hiccups this week actually. I decided to do a 7 day free trial on the guitar app I was using and accidently hit a 3 month subscription that cost $75. I am still waiting to see if Apple refunds me my money. Honestly, I would not mind if they do not because it is a very useful app to help me practice my guitar playing.  I also have decided to learn a new song Nirvanas-Come as you are. I found a free lesson on Youtube and that is what I have focused most of my time on. I have gotten pretty good at the first couple of notes but not very consistent. I hope to improve my consistency by next week.  I hope to have a video of me playing some of this song next week. Practice makes perfect.
