A Teacher's Journey

Genius Hour Reflection Post Three I have started exploring Hamilton and Niagara regions since they are close to me now. I have been to few falls two in Hamilton Albean Fall and another one which i don't remember the name, I have visited Balls falls and one more on that area which was mostly dried out but it was a great hiking experiences and i was all sweating due to the heat on Sunday. I have pictures i will include later since my laptop is broken.   Festivals to checkout So far I have learned that travel cost for air, train and car are all different and could be costly unless i choose to see those places on off season which would not be good due to the weather. Although i came to the conclusion that i could start my journeys by selecting the cheapest option at that time by checking all the great deals for Bus, trains and renting cars.

I have really enjoyed learning about plickers and definitely planning on using it at home for now and in my classroom in future. The best part is that i can use them now at my volunteer  position or simply at home with my little brother in law Ali and sister in law Zahra. The best part of this application is that in includes technology without having to provide technological tools for each students, which creates a fun and enthusiasm. I really enjoy learning about educational technology and also how to implant it in my teaching career. 

So Far I have started by project by trying to visit local places that are at no cost. After all i'm new to the city and I think its best to start from here in Hamilton. Since i have heard alot about the falls we have in this city, I have googled them and planed and visited the ones that are close by. I don't remember the names of these falls or where they are located at but I guess thats something to take note. I will post some pictures later. The only obstacle is time at the moment since travelling requires time and of course a buddy to accompany you. Thus i have to try to schedules them according to my husband's day offs and also my school schedule. For next week i have plan to see one of these places once a week and hopefully by winter i could visit places that are great to visit in winter.
