The students of Grade VI are geared up to present the PYP Exhibition. The preparations have gathered momentum and the excitement is palpable. It all began with the learning to learn week in June, where the students saw previous years’ exhibition videos and reflected upon them. Then came the time for setting personal goals and doing self assessment. In process they learnt about things like multiple intelligence and academic honesty. Finally, the children were given the theme for the exhibition “Sharing the Planet”. The students picked up key ideas from the theme and were asked to make personal connections. After that the children came up with the issues to which they could relate to personally. After the entire process was over, the children came up with nine major issues. They are: Child Labour, Deforestation and Animal Rights, Pollution, Global Warming, Illiteracy, Conflict Resolution, Poverty, Human Rights and Waste Management. The students have formed their inquiry groups and are geared up to do meaningful research.
