Here you will find recommendations that will help you through the research process of the exhibition. The SIS librarians have selected and evaluated different resources and tools that will be useful.

Welcome!

PYP exhibition is an opportunity for 10-12 year students who are in their final year of the PYP to explore knowledge, synthesize it collaboratively and apply their learning to take an appropriate course of action that arises from their genuine concern and commitment towards environment and humanity.During their inquiry process they are involved in identifying, investigating and offering solutions to real life issues or problems. A central idea is selected which is of sufficient significance to warrant a detailed inquiry by all students. They incorporate the five essential elements and exhibit the attributes of the learner profile that they have been developing throughout their years in the PYP.The PYP exhibition unites the students teachers, parents and the other school community in a collaborative experience and celebrates the transition of the learners to the Middle School.
