One thing I personally look forward to every year is the 2nd grade Invention Convention.  Students get to make their own inventions whether it be a life hack to make life easier or a cool game they created.  Then classes sign up to come see all of the inventions.  I was very impressed with the inventions the 2nd graders came up with.  Way to go 2nd grade!
