Awesome workshop! The students were so engaged and excited. Would love to have you come back next year. Thank you!
5th grade LOVES the Toymaker! Thanks for such a fun and enriching experience. Always a HUGE hit!
The whole first grade team had such a blast. That was incredibly cool and applicable to our student learning. We'll plan for it again next year for sure.
Excellent connection with our Spinning Earth curriculum. It’s amazing how much the activities apply to our content. And the kids have the best time. Thank you so much!
Fantastic and Full of Fun! The student were very motivated and excited to learn about Space and your project is still making them think about how it works, and how much they love it. It’s ‘watercooler’ talk! Thank you!
