Rather than solely relying on a doc or a website, I recently created this display on my classroom wall at #NISTis to help my students visualise the start of the #MYPdesign cycle and get them up out of their seat and moving a bit more.

Wrapping up the year at #CISDesign with #DubiousDesignDecember. Using Protobot.org prompts as starting points our #grade9 and #grade10 students got creative. Here are some of the (chocolate) winning ideas! #MYPDesign.

MYP Design teachers: how are your students working practically during this time? Do you have any recommendations for ways students can prototype and make at home? #onlinelearning #MYPDesign

Explored #jamboard for a synchronous session with our Grade 8 learners today. It got us all thinking, collaborating and talking more openly. Finding opportunities to learn from others and explore new teaching and learning tools. #GSuite #mypdesign #yis #continuouslearning

Appreciating all the energy, effort and positive feedback G8 gave each other in our love session this week. A lot of wonderful flexible thinking, building on ideas as well as being able to adapt their designs given our new constraints. #designthinking #myp #feedback #jamboard

Will definitely try this out, perhaps for unpacking the statement of inquiry. What is your point of view? Building on each other’s opinions and ideas.

Bookmarking: CPD courses by #Senecalearn. Finding a little time to explore #DualCoding in preparation for next year. Always looking for new ways to adapt and refine resources for students. Trying to get the balance right! #mypdesign

Love this approach and it would be so lovely to hear the students talking so confidently and enthusiastically about their ideas I’m sure! Ideas for our next G6 mini unit! Anna Davies #mypdesign

Resource list and food for thought. We asked, will you Persevere, Adapt or Pivot? (into a completed new direction) Students have been able to demonstrate flexible thinking and their adaptability revisiting the project purpose and the SOI! #mypdesign Anna Davies

So proud of our YIS community for providing 183 meals for the Chiku Center yesterday. A wonderful achievement and inspires us to continue supporting others! ❤️

Such a difficult one....Frida Kahlo, Warhol, Amy Sherald, Matisse and Briget Riley! So many possibilities from their creative genius!
