PYP3 - Unit 3

Where we are in place and time

Central idea: 

All places on earth have specific features that distinguish them from one another.

In this Unit of Inquiry our main focus will be to investigate landforms, observing how different the places are according to their landform features.

Soon we will be sharing some of our investigations and findings.

This week we had 

PYP 3 Beta´s Assembly about Unit 2 - How we organise ourselves.

Here are some pictures for you to enjoy:

They did a wonderful job!

Stay tuned for more news from PYP 3!!!

PYP 3 students also chose one of the organisational systems to focus and do their research based on what they learned throughout the Unit of inquiry. They worked in groups according to their interest and then they presented their findings to the class.
