Ms.Shalini Samuel Coordinator -Grade-V,VI |
The PYP Exhibition is an integral part of the Grade 6 students. It is summative assessment, which is done in Grade 6, a culmination of the Primary Years Programme. This year the theme was ‘Sharing the Planet.’ The journey for the same started from the month of June where a period in the time table was exclusively laid aside for the exhibition. The students were led rung by rung by through the process of Identifying the theme, then the key ideas and finally coming up with global issues out of which they have chosen the one in which they were interested in.
The students were busy in an exciting inquiry journey to make this planet a better place to live in. It engaged students to take action and reflect .They reflected on their actions throughout the PYP Exhibition journey by self assessment, peer assessment and formative assessment by the mentors. This year I could see my students very well understanding the PYP Concept – Perception - they learnt Perceptions vary from person to person. Different people perceive different things about the same situation. They learnt to work as a team with their peers who had different perceptions about the same issue.
Great work displayed by the students and teachers of Grade VI.we could see all the five elements of PYP .It was a well presented and well coordinated effort by Shalini and her team of dedicated teachers.
