1 The IB PYP at Caleb Greenwood Caleb Greenwood is a candidate school for the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Program.

2 KNOWLEDGE PYP is a concept-driven, inquiry-based learning framework for children ages 3-12. Six transdisciplinary themes of global significance help organize the program. -Who We Are -How We Express Ourselves -How We Organize Ourselves -Where We are in Place and Time -How Organize Ourselves -How the World Works -Sharing the Planet

3 CONCEPTS Teachers in the PYP develop Units of Inquiry focusing on important ideas of universal significance regardless of time or place within and across disciplines. These Central Ideas help students make connections throughout their learning.

4 APPROACHES TO LEARNING Students in the PYP develop life skills that transcend the school day. The PYP has grouped the transdisciplinary skills into five main groups: social skills, research skills, thinking skills, communication skills and self-management skills.

5 ATTITUDES Through the PYP Attitudes and the IB Learner Profile students develop dispositions, values, beliefs and feelings towards learning which lead to international mindedness.

6 ACTION Student action is initiated by the student as an extension of an Inquiry. This action may have a social impact on both in and outside the school community.
