Personal and cultural expression explores the ways in which we discover and express ideas, feelings, nature, culture, beliefs and values the ways in which we reflect on, extend and enjoy our creativity our appreciation of the aesthetic. What is personal and cultural expression IB? What is fairness and development MYP?įairness and development explores rights and responsibilities the relationship between communities sharing finite resources with other people and with other living things access to equal opportunities peace and conflict resolution. The inferior parietal lobe (IPL) is active in all three orientation domains, and the temporal lobe mostly for time but also for person orientation. What part of brain controls orientation in space? It can be assessed by asking patients to perform spatial transformations such as rotations or inversions of stimuli. Spatial orientation refers to the ability to identify the position or direction of objects or points in space (Benton & Tranel, 1993). Teachers and students are guided by these contexts as they also explore overarching key concepts which can be linked to each of the eight subject areas in the MYP.Orientation in space and time is concerned with exploring personal histories homes and journeys turning points in humankind discoveries explorations and migrations of human-kind the relationships between, and the interconnectedness of, individuals and civilizations, from personal, local and global perspectives. The concepts and contexts serve as a framework for teacher unit planning and student guidance based on a statement of inquiry. The six concepts – in combination with subject-specific related concepts – provide a structure for students to understand new ideas, acquire essential skills, develop attitudes, and take action in a socially responsible way. These global contexts are closely linked with the six transdisciplinary themes of the PYP. Six global contexts - identities and relationships orientation in space and time personal and cultural expression scientific and technical innovation globalization and sustainability fairness and development – provide the framework for students’ construction of knowledge.
The MYP uses structured inquiry as a vehicle for learning. The way our students learn empowers them to inquire into a wide range of issues and ideas of local, national, and global significance and allows them to develop the knowledge, attitudes and skills they need in order to manage complexity and take responsible action for the future. The program is a challenging educational framework that encourages students to make practical connections between their various areas of studies and the real world. The MYP aims to develop active learners and internationally-minded young people who can empathize with others and pursue lives of purpose and meaning. Middle Years Programme (MYP): 6th-8th Grade Through the lens of a central idea that is engaging, relevant, challenging, significant, and concept-driven, each unit is paired with three or four lines of inquiry, which further clarify the central idea and define the scope of inquiry.
The six transdisciplinary themes that guide the PYP units of inquiry and compose a year of study are: Who we are, Where we are in place in time, How we express ourselves, How the world works, How we organize ourselves, and Sharing the planet. In the Preschool and Lower School years, units of inquiry interweave core subject areas such as mathematics, language arts, science, social studies, arts, and physical education.
The PYP’s transdisciplinary approach motivates our students to learn traditional subject area skills, because they can perceive-in real time-how their scholarship will lead them to real-world solutions. The PYP curriculum is unique in that it addresses real-world problems and looks at them through various lenses. Primary Years Programme (PYP): Pre-K 3 through 5th Grade
