What does exhibition look like during #onlinelearning? We set up @padlet @SlackHQ & @zoom_us channels for educators and PYP coordinators to connect and collaborate across continents for the world's first #virtualpypx So far, 38 people in 18 countries are onboard. Join us!
@anna_murie had her students use LEGO to build multiplication and division concepts with arrays (pun intended). Loved how kids articulated their understanding, connecting the concrete to the representational to the abstract. #EYPYGEMS #GEMSinspire #iluvmaths #PYPmaths

Preparing kids for the future: G4 students took personality tests to consider roles in companies & organizations. They wrote job applications to apply for jobs with their start up businesses. Bravo! #entrepreneurs #EYPYGEMS #GEMSinspire #IBPYP @MeagDS @SciTechWow @tdgrundhoefer

One of the best PD opportunities is heading next door to our colleagues - learning from each other. Thank you @MoirSuzanne for opening up your classroom and always sharing great ideas! #EYPYGEMS #GEMSinspire #learningcommunities #cultureoflearning

Students driving the learning: Loved how students had to make careful choices on the food product (milk, pancakes...) they were interested in & the resources (epic, kiddle, YouTube, etc) they should use to gather information. #EYPYGEMS #GEMSinspire #digitalcitizens @ExpatTeacher

Me: What was your big take away? Student: You can learn something new from something old. Amazing G2 museum exhibitions showcasing TD learning at its best with where we are in place and time. Personal artefacts leading to awesome inquiries! #EYPYGEMS #GEMSinspire #IBPYP

What are different ways to make 25 cents? Open tasks for different entry points and opportunities to share different strategies. Great maths conversations! #EYPYGEMS #GEMSinspire #iluvmaths #PYPmaths @AshleyFritz10

Couldn’t stop laughing when all the kids went ‘ooooooooh’ when @NicoleMervin took out the mini Nutella, orange juice, cereal, etc. They had so much fun putting things on shelves while practicing using positional words! #EYPYGEMS #GEMSinspire #PYPmathplay

Building a learning community. Quick PD: grade levels take turns to share ideas at the first 10min of every staff meeting. #sharingiscaring #EYPYGEMS #GEMSinspire @SciTechWow @tim_poynting

Great listening & speaking exercise! A asks question, B answers. If correct, B takes over question while A goes to another question ‘station’. Amazing Mandarin from these Gr2 students and loved how they gave each other feedback along the way! #EYPYGEMS #GEMSinspire @Alice_Li92
PreK students learning through play. Thoughtful planning that inspires inquiry and exploration. I’d love to be four again! #GEMSinspire #EYPYGEMS #PYPplay @GEMS_PreK

G1-5 teachers sharing student writing. Great opportunity to check out how others work. SeeThinkWonder revealed awesome writing happening, growth, feedback & feedforward. Same same but different. Next up: unpack and dig deeper. #EYPYGEMS #PLC #GEMSinspire #TeacherInquirers

10 questions every teacher should ask themselves: #edchat #ntchat justintarte.com/2016/06/10-q…
Powerful real life learning - especially when we let kids take charge. When do we meet? How will we remember? Who’s doing what? Getting posters up took coordination. Now imagine organizing a guest speaker... Bravo to these kiddos! #EYPYGEMS #PYPActionAgency #GEMSInspire

Seesaw activities being used in class for assessment. What do the kids know about the calendar, days of the week and months of the year? #EYPYGEMS #GEMSInspire

Proud writers bringing their stories to life in @HarilelaY ‘s G1 Writers Workshop! Students referred to the anchor chart to reflect and to give each other feedback. #assessment #writersatwork #EYPYGEMS #GEMSInspire

Love how the Mandarin lesson is connected to the UOI through science (毛毛虫🐛) and art (colors and shape) and math (patterns and symmetry)! #transdisciplinary #EYPYGEMS #GEMSInspire @BrarMalaker @soniam1396 @Alice_Li92
