Learn Financial Knowledge
Under the superdisciplinary theme "How We Organize Ourselves", students learned the first integration unit "Decimal Division 1", "Decimal Division II", "Decimal Four Mixed Operations", "Decimal and Fractional Reciprocal" and "Percentile".
▲Mathematics class in the Primary School
In the G6 class, some students proposed "I want to party with good friends", so there was a group demonstration of "Planning a New Year's Party", and this common mathematical problem in life was used as a driving problem for the integration unit.
Students Express
Their Opinions
How to organize a meeting is an important part of the exploration and discovery of this unit "How We Organize Ourselves".
In this regard, the students asked the inquiry question: How should the party be carried out as a whole? How can decoration attract more people to participate? How many people are suitable... Everyone raised a steady stream of questions in the group, and each student expressed their own opinions, colliding with the spark of thinking.
▲The students expressed their opinions
Students are delving into problem-solving and will also gain the ability to find relevant information.
In the single-line tasks and teamwork, students can experience the ten cultivator goals of IB, which is an important step to achieve students' understanding and application of knowledge points.
Focus on the Cultivation of
Core Literacy in
Mathematics
After exploration and discussion, some students in G6 showed their achievements through PPT, posters, mind maps and other forms.
▲Students learned from each other
This integrated unit course focuses on the cultivation of core competencies in mathematics. In the inquiry, the teacher will closely combine the problems of the integrated unit research with the core concepts of mathematics, establish the relationship between the project and the discipline, guide students to propose the project problem chain, formulate the path and method of project research, stimulate the learning interest of the integrated course, and carry out the overall structure.
The teaching of IB PYP focuses on the cultivation of students' learning thinking and ability, and masters the essence of mathematics. At the same time, the teaching focuses on cultivating children's habit of continuous exploration of problems, forming good thinking, creativity and criticality, and achieving students' multi-dimensional possibilities.
