The Game Winning Shot

My Twitter feed has been flooded by Bentonville fans sharing the awesome results in Tiger basketball this week.

Two games in one week with game winning shots from Malik Monk in the final seconds. Here's one of several videos on YouTube:


When I spied the team swarming Malik, my first thought was "that kid must love his team" because there were several points scored by his teammates that enabled the final shot to have game winning potential. Malik Monk didn't win the games alone. And teachers don't win in the classroom alone either. It's your expertise, inquiry, ongoing feedback, and drive to serve students well that fuels the results within each team. Let's continue to bring that to the table for each Genius Hour session.

Here's a review of the January happenings in our Genius Hour sessions:
