PYP Information Day for Grade 1 & 2 parents



6 July 2013 saw the PYP information day at grade 1 &2. It was time for our first interactive parents - teachers connect since school began.
Along with a brief note about curriculum strands & sub-strands, assessments, unit overviews; we as educators of OIS Newton spoke and emphasized on the balance that we seek in learners between the acquisition of knowledge, conceptual understanding and its manifestation in practice through learner profiles, skills and responsible action. Based on the foundations of this and the conjoined philosophy of IBPYP and OIS Newton campus, we spoke of our practices through pictures and interactive discussions respectively; of various academic/non academic, self awareness programs, established classroom practices like spell well, think books, class responsibilities, class moms/dads etc.
