We have been using this project in our homeschool group this year and we are loving it! We are all impressed with the user friendly format! I love that all of the resources are at your fingertips with options to have hard copy or go 100% digital. We opted to print out the passports and travel through the printed out workbook. My 3rd/4th graders enjoy the lessons and what they learn in each project. Thank you for developing such a quality, engaging, user-friendly project based curriculum that works for any group! We can't wait to dive into more projects and now we all take comfort in knowing that our kids have solid basis for digital citizenship as well as internet research and terminology!

I was a substitute tutor for a class. The instructions are so clear and easy to use that I was able to jump right into teaching without having to review anything. The students are very enthusiastic and are disappointed when class time is up. They are learning a lot and they enjoy it. Thank you!
