An orientation for parents new to the Primary Years Programme (PYP) was held on Saturday, 20 April 2013. The objective was to create an understanding of the PYP philosophy and pedagogy through hands-on experience.
Parents got a flavour of what happens in a PYP classroom, and took part in inquiry-based activities in four different stations. They got a deeper insight into what transdisciplinary teaching and learning look like in Language, Maths, Science and Social Studies in brief, crisp 20-minute sessions. The focus on concepts rather than content was clearly communicated in each station.
