PYP Exhibition 2011-2012

Kris Stanhope Year 6 Leader

Students are required to engage in a collaborative, trasndisiplinary inquiry process that involves them in identifying, investigating and offering solutions to real-life issues or problems.

The students will be grouped according to an issue for which they expressed interest.

They will carry out an inquiry into this real-life issue and develop an action they can take.

They will celebrate their learning by presenting their entire process during Exhibition Week.

As an authorized PYP school, we agree to the principles and practices of the programme. The exhibition is one of those.

To celebrate the transition from primary to high school

To engage in an in-depth, collaborative inquiry

To demonstrate independence and responsibility for their own learning

To apply their learning from six years in the PYP program

To take action as a result of their learning

To share their learning process with their families and the wider community

This year’s topics are all based around the Sharing the Planet theme, using this central idea:

Actions and decisions have consequences that affect the world.

Students will inquire into:Issues that exist locally and globally.Sustainable ways to make a difference Student Choice (impact of their issue)

Students will explore the various kinds of action

Students will explore possible actions that can be taken

The action should be something they can accomplish on their own, and should be meaningful to themselves and the community.

They will carry out the action during ACTION WEEK
