If you are doing a similar unit + want to try this provocation (or edit it), then click and make a copy of my '6 Nations' doc. It is engaging, plus it really pushed #empathy + #compassion which were necessary to give the UoI depth. #WWAIPAT #pyp πŸ˜€ 3/3

The differing standards, #rights and #opportunities led to discontent + anger quickly as Ss wanted to quit (or keep people away) from their assigned countries. So immediately we were unpacking key 🌎 issues of #migration and considering the issue from many #perspectives. 2/3

This was a fun moment in our #migration themed #WWAIPAT #inquiry. It began with this dynamic #provocation ⬇️. The class and Ss were divided into 6 fictional countries - each with different sizes, economies, healthcare, job prospects, crime rates, life expectancies etc. #PYP 1/3

Grade 6 students explored migration in 6 fictional countries with different conditions during a β€˜Mock UN Summit of Empathy.’ They debated, passed resolutions & tackled real-world challenges. A journey into migration, cooperation & empathy! 🌍✨ #ABIS #IBWorld #UNSummit

In our post #PYPX unit - #HWOO - we looked at organising something we learnt about ourselves from the #Exhibition. The Ss #inquired into the format of a Ted Talk and followed the #form + structure to create their own 'KIDx' talk. A very powerful + #reflective way to end the year!

When your students help you to pack up the class and then suddenly realise that we have accidentally built the coolest multi-levelled fort that must be explored + played with. My final day after 4 years in lovely πŸ‡±πŸ‡¦ @vislaos ! Onwards to the next adventure @ABISOman in πŸ‡΄πŸ‡²! #PYP

We began our #PYPX24 by designing a Yellow Brick Road in Feb to fit with our Literacy theme. It seemed fitting to end by carving up + signing the road to give each child a lasting souvenir of their experience and growth. My next #PYPX posts in 2025 will be coming from πŸ‡΄πŸ‡²πŸ˜€(5/5)

The data collected after (as well as during) the #PYPX is really encouraging and suggests that the Ss #wellness, enjoyment and passion for their inquiries and the process was high throughout. Some snippets below and certainly #data that will help next year's G5 teachers! (4/5)

It was fun to add a dramatic element to this year's #PYPX finale. ⬇️ was our dress rehearsal. The aim was a tableau to symbolise either a key idea from their #inquiry or a position to #reflect a part of their journey. And of course, to our Oz 🎡 (3/5)

The #PYPX highlight for me this year has been the #communication and #social skills #ATL growth. Specifically how the students have reflected and learnt to adapt, engage and interact with different audiences, especially our youngest community members! (2/5)

Possibly my favourite phase of the #PYPX, as the Ss start to get active and build upon their base knowledge from LOI 1. LOI 2 aim is to be 'hands on' and much more creating / experimenting / designing / tinkering etc. So much going on, beautiful chaos! 😬 #PYPX24 #exhibition #PYP

When your theme is OZ + you have shown that your #PYPX idea has #passion, longevity and connections to our community - then there is nothing else to do, but enter the house, embrace the Tornado of what is to come and head down the yellow brick road! #PYP #Exhibition #PYPX24 #fun

Awesome to go full circle with this #provocation + now have the students #design + build their own carnival game with the goal of giving themselves a small mathematical advantage. Great to see them explaining and justifying their choices/maths too. #chance #probability #pypmath

A fun #provocation to start our mini math #inquiry into #probability + #chance. Each student was given 10 coins, then we let them play our fair where all the games are rigged / unfair. Some went bankrupt, all had fun + some great discussions / early #analysis πŸ€”! #math #pypmath

An awesome trip for G5 to the @lctwildlife - so many incredible connections to our #STP #inquiry into #biodiversity. From identifying and classifying species, to pondering food webs, to building enrichment toys for the animals. So memorable and exciting. #PYP #pypchat #fieldtrip
