We may not be together in one place...but we are still connected...and we still know how to have some fun! @isdedu @ibpyp #distancelearning2020 #ibpyp #WeAreISD #homelearning
We especially loved the scrunchies and popcorn!!! ☃️🎄
Thanks @isdedu third graders for a beautiful, #sustainable Christmas market. So impressed with what Ss were able put together! #WeAreISD #IBPYP #howweorganizeourselves

To all the teachers out there- is this your “ultimate goal”?? #IBPYP #IBMYP #edchat @iborganization
❤️ “The purpose of school is not just to learn but to become a better human being...to gain skills like compassion, self-awareness, organization and kindness.” Love this statement from an @isdedu sixth grader! #WeAreISD #ATLskills #ibmyp

Here’s one example of what #agency looks like in @ISDFifthGrade at @isdedu! #pypvoices #WeAreISD
Ready for day 1 in @ISDFifthGrade! Excited to give control for the space and the week over to students and see what they come up with! @isdedu #studentagency #ibpyp

Did you know? #GlobalWarming makes the earth warmer and that means that animals have to adopt much faster than they did before. We can use more glass than plastic and we can use less haribo packets. #studentagency #savetheworld @alecialoo @jessicaboerema @isdedu #WeAreISD

Ss take #action and run their first soccer training session for @isdedu first graders for their #pypx. Great reflections: “I think we need a whistle”, “they distracted themselves, I didn’t know you could distract yourself”, “they just wanted to play!” #IBPYP #WeAreISD
#studentteeet #pypex #keepisdclean We will go outside to the playground and pick up trash everyday! #cleanuptheworld You can help us to keep our school clean. We picked up 250 pieces of trash today in 50 minutes, can you pick up even one? @isdedu @alecialoo @OLEISD @CHowald15

Amazing #passion sharing session with @aphallam in @ISDFifthGrade! “How does money relate to happiness? It comes from experiences and time spent with people...choose a job you love so it doesn’t have to feel like work.” @isdedu #WeAreISD #financialliteracy

Workshop today in @ISDFifthGrade looking at shrinking notes as a note taking strategy for researching led to an awesome use of #sketchnoting! #WeAreISD #sketchnotefever @isdedu @sylviaduckworth
Ss in @ISDFifthGrade are engaged in their #pypx inquiries! Excited to see where the learning takes them! #WeAreISD #IBPYP @ibpyp @isdedu
A talk about sportsmanship on the soccer field led to a conversation about #action. How does change happen? By taking action. And that change starts with us! #WeAreISD #pypexhibition @isdedu
Exciting day in @ISDFifthGrade as students work to plan their #pypexhibition. What is your #passion? What is your #purpose? What do you need to learn and do in the next six weeks to get there? @isdedu #WeAreISD #IBPYP

A former 5th grader taught @ISDFifthGrade how to make tiramisu because “I like watching people enjoy something delicious that I took the time and energy to make. I just like making people happy.” #pypexhibition @isdedu #IBPYP

“We do need Hope. But the one thing we need more than hope is #action. Once we start to act, Hope is everywhere.” We’re talking about passion for purpose. This is passion for purpose. Great discussions in @ISDFifthGrade today. #pypx #WeAreISD @isdedu youtu.be/EAmmUIEsN9A

If I’m passionate about something and want to take action, how can I start? Mr. de Groote tells @ISDFifthGrade to “Turn ‘one day’ thinking into ‘day one’ action.” One day. Day one. Action. #takingaction #pypexhibition #WeAreISD #IBPYP

Great bit of advice for @ISDFifthGrade from one of our guests today, trying to identify a passion can be a daunting task...instead, try to think about the things that make you curious! #pypexhibition passion sharing continues @isdedu! #WeAreISD #IBPYP

Blown away by the passion (and talent) that exists in our @isdedu community! Sessions today for @ISDFifthGrade in bullet journaling, writing/recording music, singing, ceramics and quilting (@BreedloveCarol)! Feeling inspired! #WeAreISD #ibpyp #pypchat #pypx
More #passion sharing in @ISDFifthGrade today! Yoga, computing, photography, 3D printing, bread making and gluten free baking! Thanks @isdedu! #pypx is off to a great start! @ibpyp #pypchat #WeAreISD #IBPYP
