They chose deforestation as a global issue and explored that ‘Plants are required for our existence and in order to fulfil our needs’. For six weeks\, students explored this unit. They planned\, they researched\, they coordinated\, and they practised to make the Exhibition a success. The Exhibition was held for three days. It was inaugurated by ELC kids of AAIS. Parents and Guests attended the Exhibition on 25th of March. It commenced with a performance which was planned by the students of each group on their lines of inquiry. Parents were amazed by their confident performance. Just after the play\, the presentation started which showcased the knowledge of children on elements of PYP. The PYP Exhibition\, a culmination of learning in the PYP Years challenges the students to begin their exploration by framing their own Central Idea and the Lines of Inquiry To make their research more meaningful children visited the Adyar Eco Park and a farm in Arrakkonam. In the farm they also got involved in cleaning the weeds from the land. Here is a sample of what some of the visitors of the PYP Exhibition had to say. “Wonderful work by the kids of Grade 5.To see that all the work they have done is a demonstration of independent enquiry is so inspiring”.- “This PYP exhibition has a very great methodology to help children learn and sensitize themselves about our biomes and the need for having our gardens back”.
