New Unity of Inquiry

This week we started a new unity of inquiry, "How We Organize Ourselves".
As you know St. Jude's Academy is on a process of implementing IB Primary Years Program (for more info visit: http://www.ibo.org/pyp/ ).
I'm very excited about this new unity and what students can get from it.


Title: "OFF TO WORK WE GO!"

Our central idea: "A community is made up of people who work together and depend on each other."


Lines of Inquiry:
*Jobs people have in a community
*Why and how people can help each other in a community
*How jobs interconnect in a community


It would be nice if you could share with your child what you do for a living, and tell him/her what role your job plays in the community.
Thank you,
Mrs. Padovan
