Enjoyed writing about everything they learned. The snack was a hit and the scavenger hunt was very useful for parents to explore independently with their child.

K-3 is a nice combination

It really seemed to flow with all parents from different classes.

Order more snacks (we ran out). Order the butterflies 3 weeks prior so that we have them for showcase (improve timing of butterfly release).

We had a fantastic parent turnout, and the event flowed smoothly, allowing families to move easily between classrooms. The timing—about an hour and a half—felt just right, keeping everyone engaged without feeling too long. Most importantly, the students were thrilled to share their projects with their families, making it a truly meaningful experience.

Making sure that the divergent question drives the project more intentionally and will help create a deeper, more personalized learning experience for students.

It was nice for families to actually see grade level projects and what they will be working towards in the upcoming years.
