Finding out: What is it all about?

Our Year 6 classes have just started their second stage of the inquiry process: Finding out.  They have worked very hard over the last couple of weeks identify the issues that they would like to investigate further and decide on research questions, based on four of the PYP Key Concepts.  Now, they are all set to go forward with finding the answers to their questions.

They have also created note-taking guides to help them along as they find information that they think might be useful for answering their concept/research questions.

Our Exhibition gets into Full Gear - Exhibition Amazing Race

What an awesome start to our Exhibition 2015. Our groups completed the Transdisciplinary Amazing Race in their newly formed exhibition groups. All our activities were provided by the Single Subject specialists (Art, Music, PE, Languages and Library) and were made to develop both our collaboration and understanding of the PYP Key Concepts.
