We are learning to explore our own values and beliefs about education through readings and understand why this is important. Students will also engage with IB PYP standards and practices to gain understanding and identify challenges, completing an activity on a blog about an article and discussing standards in small groups. They will reflect on the standards activity, what another standard may mean, and how to address their identified challenges.
