Get ready for a workshop like no other—led by the experts themselves: Third Graders!
Join HTeNC students and their teacher, Esmeralda Garcia, as they take you inside EcoUpdates—a real-world, interdisciplinary project created in partnership with the San Dieguito River Park. Through their voices, you’ll gain authentic insight into how young learners engage in meaningful, deeper learning experiences. Perfect for elementary teachers and leaders, this interactive session is full of ideas for designing alongside children, fostering youth leadership and dialogue, and bringing project-based learning to life. Come curious, leave inspired—and maybe with a few new third-grade friends!

Project Unpackings are an in-depth exploration of structures used to design for deeper learning. Each session is facilitated by a HTH educator and focuses on one or more of the PBL Essentials: Design for Deeper Learning Kaleidoscope. This is an interactive workshop in which participants are asked to design, discuss, and reflect. Project Unpackings welcome new and experienced educators.
