Below you can see 6 units of inquiry which are the foundation to the IB Primary Years Programme's curriculum. Each year they are revised for improvement and are always subject to change. The units focus on six transdisciplinary themes which are a part of all IB PYP schools worldwide.
Grade 2 students will inquire about the following themes throughout the 2016-2017 school year.
Who we are - Personal Choices
Where we are in place and time - Exploration
How we express ourselves - Music and movement
How the world works - The Earth and the Sun
How we organize ourselves - Economic systems
Sharing the planet - Waste management
We have started the second unit already which is "Who we are" where the kids inquire how their personal choices affect their health.
Central idea; The choices people make affect their health and well-being.
The kids will be engaged in a variety of activities during the next five weeks. They will run records of their observations. They will collect more information about bacteries and germs and think over their bad effect on people's health. The kids will be introduced a healty food plate. The kids will get information about different food groups. They will understand how much is healthy diet important. The students will prepare their own shopping list of healthy food. They will visit a store. The kids will prepare a number of displays and student boards as a means of reflection.
Hopefully we all will enjoy these unit very much.
The unit is going to be over on December 9.
