Help children create a simple reflective journal throughout their unit. This prompt helps children (and teachers new to PYP) to become more familiar with the terminology of PYP and to formalise their thinking as they progress through the unit. Don't be afraid to spend time discussing and taking about these components of the unit rather than just focusing on the content of the unit. It is these elements that bring about discussion and deeper understanding of connections and learning.

With a huge increase in digital platforms and iPad use in class, this organiser helps children decide on the best way to present their learning. Giving children choice and ownership of sharing their learning is a powerful tool. This simple prompt helps children make an informed decision and gives them independence in doing so. Model different ways of presenting learning with your children and have this in their iPad resources as an ongoing reference.
