PYP
Transdisciplinary Themes
The Primary Years Programme (PYP) is a transdisciplinary curriculum framework that offers authentic learning experiences.
The PYP encourages students to learn to appreciate knowledge, conceptual understandings, skills and personal attributes as a connected whole.
The programme of inquiry is organised and framed by six transdisciplinary themes:
- Who we are
- Where we are in place and time
- How we express ourselves
- How the world works
- How we organize ourselves
- Sharing the planet

My wondering was, why does the world have to make a drought?

Our Central Idea is ‘The weather affects lives and environment’.
My wondering was, how does thunder and lightning make a noise?
The Preps have been learning about their Transdisciplinary Theme: How we express ourselves.
