The IB PYP Exhibition refers to the culminating project of the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (PYP). Exhibition is an inquiry-based, student-led project that encourages students to showcase their understanding of the six transdisciplinary themes of the PYP: Who We Are, Where We Are in Place and Time, How We Express Ourselves, How the World Works, How We Organize Ourselves, and Sharing the Planet.
During the Exhibition, students work collaboratively in groups to explore a real-world issue or problem that interests them. They engage in an in-depth investigation, using their research, critical thinking, and communication skills to develop a deeper understanding of the chosen topic. The Exhibition is an opportunity for students to apply the knowledge, skills, and attitudes they have developed throughout their PYP journey.
The process of the Exhibition typically involves several stages, including:
- Choosing a topic: Students select a topic or issue they are passionate about and that relates to the PYP transdisciplinary themes.
- Research: Students conduct research to gather information and different perspectives on their chosen topic.
- Taking action: Students identify ways to take action or make a positive impact related to their topic. This could involve raising awareness, implementing a solution, or organizing an event.
- Presentation: Students create a presentation or exhibit to showcase their learning and findings to the school community and families.
The IB PYP Exhibition aims to develop students' skills in research, critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and self-reflection. It encourages our Peter Hobart students to become independent learners, responsible citizens, and global thinkers who can make a difference in the world.
Please join us in celebrating our 5th graders on Thursday, May 25th. The Exhibition showcase will take place from 6 - 7:30 pm, at Peter Hobart.
