We haven't made to much more progress on our project. We are very challenged to find Proceeds to put towards our goal. It is a lot harder to find people who want to donate. At first i thought we would have no problem finding people that would like to help out but not many people see this as something needed for the KHS football program.

We plan on teaching a class about the fundamentals of sports. We will take videos and pictures of exactly what we are teaching the kids. We would like to teach the class for about one week before the end of the school year
In the article "'Hidden Figures' Inspire Connecticut Girls", it talks about how 80 High School girls were inspired by the film. After watching the film the girls felt inspired and motivated to not be afraid to take a chance and try to move forward in any of the STEM fields. Many of these girls didn't know that women were behind the first man on the moon. After finding this out the girls were surprised and also a little proud. After the film, the girls listened to a panel of STEM role models. This panel encouraged curiosity, analytical thinking and perseverance to overcome the obstacles that being a woman comes with. In today's society, women still face obstacles. Women of color have it worse. With how evolved everything has become, you would think that our views of each other would evolve also. If we can encourage girls, and children of color, that they can accomplish just as much as those who have it easy, then the world can become so much better. Everything will become so much better
In "Is Genius Born or Can it be Learned", John Cloud wrote about the perspectives of different people who study the subject of the title. There is no definitive answer, but many have their theories. Some think the IQ level directly relates to the level of genius, while others think one would need to practice their subject for ten years in order to be qualified as genius. At the end, Cloud relates that many of the words geniuses had the same traits, such as open to experience, introverted, hostile, driven, and ambitious.
The goal for my Genius hour project is to raise money for our football team to buy new shoulder pads. We do have good equipment for the football team, but there are a few pairs of shoulder pads that aren't in the best condition. The style of shoulder pads we are looking for are the Riddell power SPK. I am looking to get about 15 of them it would cost quite a bit but I think it is well worth the effort it will take to do this. The plan to do this is to first to get my weebly set up then go ahead and start raising money. If I do not reach the needed amount to buy fifteen I will use the money to buy what I can
