How the World Works: PYP Exhibition at the Junior School and West Campus

4/12/2019

This year’s PYP exhibition theme was ‘How the World Works.’ The theme represented an inquiry into the natural world and its laws; the interaction between the natural world (physical and biological) and human societies; how humans use their understanding of scientific principles; and the impact of scientific and technological advances on society and on the environment.

Under the guidance of their teacher-mentors, the Grade 5 student groups crafted their own unit of inquiry, including coming up with a central idea and lines of inquiry. The projects covered a wide range of topics, including medicine, natural disasters, space, pesticides, deforestation, transportation, global warming and technology, among others.
