An immersive, deep dive into Unit Blocks and their role in preschool through elementary education.

In this 1.5-day conference, educators of preschool and elementary students will explore the incredible educational value of wooden unit blocks. Participate in hands-on workshops, observe classroom practices, and collaborate with peers to develop new strategies for integrating blocks-based learning into your classroom communities. Together, we'll deepen our understanding of how these timeless tools can spark creativity, sharpen critical thinking, and serve as the foundation of academic learning and growth in young learners.
