Please watch this video, then look at the next few slides to see some of the things we can learn from it.

Untitled Slide

Regular school can sometimes be about following the instructions, doing just what it says in the box, producing the same thing as everyone else (like Charlie did in the video).

Try something different.

P3 and Experience week are your chance to try something different and show what you’re good at (like Maya). Think outside the box!

Our brains work differently.

Our brains all work differently. Some may think more about building according to the directions, someone else may have a brand new creative idea you didn’t think of.

Help each other.

Even if you’re not working together for your P3 project, don’t hesitate to ask your fellow students, teachers, and mentors for help this week! Help one another!

Finished?

In the video, Charlie says "We did it! We finished!" But Maya says "Finished? I don't think so. We've only just begun."

I don't think so. We've only just begun!

The nature of a passion project means you don’t ever need to be finished with it! In most cases, you are probably just beginning to explore this topic. We aren’t looking for you to finish your passion project, the way we would ask you to finish a worksheet or a test. Keep that in mind this week.

It's not a competition.

Unlike in the video, Experience Week is NOT a competition! There are no grades, no homework, etc. unless you want to keep working on your project at home.

Be proactive: Take initiative and work without waiting for instructions. Have a good attitude, and persevere.

Begin with the end in mind: Picture your success.

Program your mind for success.

What do you want to achieve by Friday afternoon?

Think about this question. Close your eyes for a minute and think about what you'd like to achieve.

Create a vision board

  • words
  • quotes
  • doodles
  • pictures
  • goals
Spend a few minutes creating a vision board of what you'd like to achieve by Friday afternoon. Some things you might include on it are words, quotes, doodles or drawings, pictures, goals, or lists.

You can either create the vision board on Google Slides (using 1 slide only), or on paper. See the Google Classroom assignment for more details.

When negative thoughts come, replace them with picturing your success!

Stick to the schedule and participate this week! Use your time wisely, and only take breaks when necessary.

Untitled Slide

Here is a list of the rooms we will use this week (if you're at school). You are free to move about these rooms, but be sure a teacher is in the room.

Use the Group Brainstorm Room (230) to discuss ideas with your group and/or get a snack.

Use the Break Room (229) to take a break - these breaks will be limited to 15 minutes. And remember, you can only go in there if a teacher is there.

Untitled Slide

Help one another and hold one another accountable.

Untitled Slide

Here is a link to the Schedule for the week (for those who are at school): https://docs.google.com/a/roycemoreschool.org/document/d/17Xbc2Ccc9TuWfgAnA...

We’ve planned activities that we can all benefit from, if we work together.

Untitled Slide

Accept feedback from your coaches, mentors, and others.

In the Above & Beyond video, the two students did not just dismiss one another because they didn’t work the same way. They worked together and came up with something even better than the individuals would have done on their own!

Untitled Slide

Reflect each day
Through Google Classroom, you will submit a written reflection and at least one picture each day. We will give you time at the end of each day to work on it.

Daily Assignment

  • Reflection
  • Picture
Reflect each day
Through Google Classroom, you will submit a written reflection and at least one picture each day. We will give you time at the end of each day to work on it.

The written reflection need not be long: just a few sentences is fine. The picture can be of anything: you working on your project, a screenshot of what you've done on your computer, a picture of the work so far. You can send more than one picture if you like.

At Friday's P3 Expo, everyone will share something. And we will listen to one another.

#ExperienceRoycemoreP3 #GriffinShowcase

If you share any photos of your P3 work on social media, please tag them with #ExperienceRoycemoreP3, #RoycemoreP3, and #GriffinShowcase. Thanks!

The P3 Expo shows a snapshot of your passion project.

The Expo should share a snapshot of your learning so far in your passion project. Mrs. Shutters will come around and discuss what would be best for each project.
