The PYP Unit of Inquiry

In the next few weeks Spicewood will  be hosting a parent workshop titled Unlocking the PYP Unit of Inquiry. This workshop is designed to outline the six transdisciplinary themes that every grade level investigates, as well as the process of planning a unit under those themes.


Teachers use a planning document to guide this process and record the process. Each unit begins with the theme, then teachers write the central idiea that will guide the learning, then the unit summative assessment. The rest of the planners outlines the skills, attributes and attitudes and other assessments that will be explored through learning experiences, provocations and lines of inquiry.


In the meantime, check out what a blank planner looks like!
