![Page 14: Welcome!](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815eea550346895dcd9d4b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
ESSENTIAL AGREEMENTS
Essential Agreements are:• few in number • concisely written • refer to how something is done, not what students learn • binding on all
When creating Essential Agreements ask: • What is it?• Why do we do it?• How does it work?• How often do we do it?• Who does it?• Who manages it?• Where is it kept?• Who has access to the information?
![Page 15: Welcome!](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815eea550346895dcd9d4b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Inquiry is an expression of our curiosity.It leads us, as we question and wonder, beyond
present understanding.The inquiry stance is:
OpenWelcoming ideas, even conflicting onesWonderingBeing playful with words and ideasCommittedActively involvedEngaging with others Building on each others utterancesAgreeing and/or disagreeing with ones own ideas and the ideas of othersReshaping ones understandings or misunderstandingsSupportive of others' ideas and ones own
Offering evidence and opinions constructed from ones’ own understanding

The Human Graph Purpose: To gather data to inform instruction.
• We have several headings. Please find the one that best describes your role and form a line there.
• Meet and greet at least two other people in your line!
![Page 17: Welcome!](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815eea550346895dcd9d4b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Do you have what you need?
• In this workshop we will be using a curriculum framework document called “Making The PYP Happen”.
• You should have white paper and other supplies at your table.
• Please let us know if you need materials. We will be happy to get them for you!
• Notice the walls and how we will collect important information in a variety of ways
![Page 19: Welcome!](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815eea550346895dcd9d4b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
How best will we learn?
Please be aware of the types of learning engagements designed for this workshop. We will note them up front. Be looking for the four main ways the PYP curriculum framework answers the question:
Reflection
Inquiry
Constructivism
![Page 20: Welcome!](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815eea550346895dcd9d4b/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Reflection
Developing Reflectiveness and ResponsibilityThese questions help children and adults reflect on their work and become responsible for strengthening their own learning.• How did you solve that?• Could you do it another way?• What is the most important part?• Does that make sense?• Did it come out like you thought it would?• Does this remind you of anything?• Has anything like this happened to you
before?• How do you know that it is right?• Does it sound right?• Does it look right?• Is there anything else you need to know?• How did it make you feel?
WISDOM
By three methodswe may learn wisdom:First, by reflectionwhich is noblest;second by imitation.which is easiest;and third by experience,which is bitterest.
- Confucius

Reflection
Think about your classroom, or
your role at your school.

Parking Lot***
• Please write your “burning questions” on a post it and place them on the “parking lot”!
• We will address these at different times throughout our workshop.
• Feel free to add questions at any time or remove them if they are answered.
![Page 24: Welcome!](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815eea550346895dcd9d4b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

What is international-mindedness?
There are a great range of interpretations of the meaning of International-mindedness. What we understand about international-
mindedness will influence how we teach in our classrooms. Form groups of 4.
Divide chart paper into 4 quadrants and determine a common middle section.
Each person writes their own definition of international-mindedness in a quadrant section.
Discuss with your group and together determine three to four common points and write them in the middle section.
Each group will share with the whole group.

International-mindedness
and the PYP“Stand and Deliver”
• Read Criteria for an International continuum. • Highlight a sentence or short passage that
stands out as a key idea of the article. What spoke to you?
• When most people are finished each person stands up one at a time and reads their highlighted sentence.
• Remain standing after you have read your phrase.
• Read your sentence even if it has already been read.

PYP Definition of Internationalism
The International Baccalaureate Organization aims to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect.
To this end the IBO works with schools, governments and international organizations to develop challenging programs of international education and rigorous assessment.
These programs encourage students across the world to become active, compassionate and lifelong learners who understand that other people, with their differences, can also be right.

“The PYP believes that international education must extend beyond intellectual attainment to include not only responsible attitudes but also thoughtful and appropriate action.”
“The PYP believes that every student, every year, has the right and the duty to be involved in such action. …the PYP advocates a cycle of involvement which provides students with opportunities to engage in meaningful action.”

Building A Program Of Inquiry• Rearrange yourselves into grade level groups. • Specialists and administrators should join a group (try to
keep groups even if possible).• In these groups, brainstorm a list of big ideas that are
included in the curriculum at your grade level.• Choose ideas that, at your grade level, are generally
included in state/district or local standards. • Choose one of the ideas and write it on a sheet of • 8 1/2 by11 paper.• Consider the transdisciplinary theme for that big idea
and post in on the wall in our POI.Reflection

The PYP Inquiry Units or planners are guided by Central Ideas
Central ideas are NOT topical they are conceptual.
It is NOT about Transportation it is about movement and/or the wheel.
It is NOT about Oregon Trail or Trail of Tearsit is about migration
It is NOT the structure of Parliamentit is about governance
It is NOT about the food pyramidit is about nutritional needs changing over time
It is NOT about Presidential electionsit is about communications and influence
Central Ideas are the enduring understandings, the big ideas, the answer to the “so what?” of a particular study. Central Ideas make content …conceptual.Conceptual understanding requires content knowledge, but the reverse is not true. Students knowing the science or social studies standards does not necessarily signify their deeper understanding of concepts and principles.

Teachers can:• Put a conceptual lens on a problem-solving study to get students to
think beyond the facts.
• Move toward thinking beyond the facts, understanding the conceptual structure of the disciplines, and clearly identify key ideas that illustrate deep knowledge.
• Understand that deep knowledge transfers across time and cultures and provides a conceptual structure for thinking about related and new ideas.
• Use a set of unifying concepts that provide a conceptual lens to facilitate integrated thinking.
• Help students draw from a fact base and see the patterns and connections
of science at a deeper level of conceptual understanding.

Moving toward conceptual organizers
Topical Organizers Frame of isolated facts
Maintain lower level of thinking
Hold learning to the fact or activity level
Have short-term use – to cover an event, issue, facts
Increase the overload curriculum
Conceptual OrganizersProvide mental schema for
categorizing common examples
Lead to higher level of thinking
Aid in the development of higher order generalizations
Serve as a tool for processing life events
Reduce the overload curriculum by framing the most salient or critical examples of concepts

• All groups that have immigrated or migrated to the United States have established social organizations.
• In all human societies, forms of social organizations emerge to satisfy the needs of individuals and groups.

Assessment
We do want students to develop deep, conceptual understanding. And we can assess and evaluate, through performance, the student’s ability to use factual content to support the conceptual understanding. Be clear about process and content expectations.

What is assessment? The gathering and analysis of information about student performance.
Identifies what the student knows, understands, can do and feel at different stages of the learning process. Assessment informs every stage of the teaching/learning process.
Formative Assessment: Short term, daily assessment that helps teachers plant next stage of learning. Linked directly with teaching.
Summative Assessment: Happens at the end of the teaching learning process. Students show in specific ways what they have learned.
Evaluation: Process of judging student progress or program

Lines of Inquiry:
--Teachers use anecdotal records gained through observing students’ choices during the unit, as well as pictures of healthy and unhealthy lifestyles. Students responses to teacher questions are recorded.--Teachers look for evidence including the students’ examples of balanced choices and the reasons they give about why these enable them to lead a healthy lifestyle.--Teachers complete an assessment rubric following the conference that indicates whether students need more time, are developing, or are independent and advanced.--Teachers keep a record of the conference notes and rubric in the student portfolios.
Teacher questions
An inquiry into:the nature of the self; beliefs and values; personal, physical, mental, social and spiritual health; human relationships including families, friends, communities, and cultures; rights and responsibilities; and what it means to be human.

Characteristics of Inquiry Students are :• participating in problem solving • asking questions • actively seeking explanations • forming hypotheses and generalizations original to them Inquiry can: • last only a few minutes • require several class periods • be used in any subject area are or age level • require that student work alone or in groups
PYP focuses on the development of the whole child as an inquirer, both in the classroom and
in the world outside.

What is inquiry based instruction?
“ The creation of a classroom where students are
engaged in essentially open-ended,
student centered, hands-on activities.”
Alan Colburn, 2000
![Page 107: Welcome!](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815eea550346895dcd9d4b/html5/thumbnails/107.jpg)
STRUCTURED INQUIRYThe teacher provides students with hands-on problems to investigate, as well as the procedures, and materials, but does not inform them of expected outcomes. Students are to discover relationships between variables or otherwise generalize from data collected.
GUIDED INQUIRYThe teacher provides only the materials and problem to investigate. Students devise their own procedure to solve the problem.
OPEN INQUIRYThis approach is similar to guided inquiry, with the addition that students also formulate their own problem to investigate. Open inquiry, in many ways, is analogous to doing science. (ex: science fair)
LEARNING CYCLEStudents are engaged in an activity that introduces a new concept. The teacher then provides the formal name for the concept. Student takes ownership for the concept by applying it in a different context. Alan Colburn, an Inquiry Primer, Science Scope, March 2000
INQUIRY BASED INSTRUCTION

Effective Inquiry does the following:
• Increases student engagement • When open ended, allows students to connect at
their level with their interests. • Provides natural opportunities to develop all of
the essential elements (concepts, skills, knowledge, attitudes and action)
• Places responsibility for learning on the student. • Relieves teachers from having to be fountains of
knowledge • Yields a better understanding of subject matter.
![Page 109: Welcome!](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062520/56815eea550346895dcd9d4b/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)
We will effectively nurture inquiry if we…..
• Ask real, honest questions.• Recognize the many voices of inquiry: our questions may not
look like questions. • Nurture the language of inquiry (I wonder? or What would
happen if?)• Create a safe and open environment. • Model it ourselves .• Create opportunities to turn to someone else • Recognize that inquiry involves knowledge in action. • Understand that students will be successful if guided toward
understanding by discovering concrete concepts on their own (instead of memorizing facts)
