Description
If we want students to learn something, we have to teach it! Created by a 23-year veteran IB PYP Teacher and former PYP Co-ordinator / School Visit Team Member, these 6-10 short lessons will help you explicitly teach what it means to be Knowledgeable, and show you how to encourage students to support each other by sharing their knowledge in class.
The Google Slides presentation is ready to use as-is with no further resources needed (other than some chart paper, black paper, some post-it notes, and a bag full of 'random junk'). It can be used for in-person or online learning, or downloaded as a PowerPoint.
As IB PYP and MYP teachers, we are often expected to have our students understand the IB Learner Profile attributes, but we are given very little guidance about how to actually teach these concepts - that's why I have made this Knowledgeable mini-unit.
It is a complete student-centered resource which will help your students really understand what it means to be Knowledgeable. And it does all this without any worksheets - modelling and introducing you and your students to a variety of strategies for authentic teaching and learning.
Features:
- Material for 6-10 short lessons (perfect for PYP Morning Meeting time or MYP homeroom sessions)
- Flexible - Choose which lessons work for your students (multiple options included for younger and older students)
- A fun read-aloud picture book to introduce being Knowledgeable (with YouTube link if you don't have the actual book available)
- Official IB definition of Knowledgeable, along with child-friendly definition
- Discussion prompts
- Visible Thinking Routines from Harvard Project Zero
- Co-operate Learning Structures by Spencer Kagan
- Active movement activities such as the Human Continuum and Four Corners
- Creative, Hands-On Literacy and Art activities
- Bulletin board display ideas
- Links to relevant General Knowledge quiz videos
- Authentic use of data handling methods (charts/tables and continuums)
- Teacher notes and suggestions
- Varied, open-ended learning engagements - suitable for all levels, including EAL / ELL / ESL learners. NO WORKSHEETS!
- Pre-Assessment and Reflection opportunities
- Confidence and Community-building activities - We are 100% Smart!
- Modelling of Inquiry-Based learning strategies
Don't recreate the wheel or be left in the dark about how to teach this concept. This Google Slideshow has all you need!
Fantastic for any time of year, but especially during those first few Back to School weeks when you are creating your classroom community.
