Teddy's PYP Exhibition

The Primary Year's Program (PYP) is a curriculum that is used in many international schools.  In grade 5, the students have to do their "Exhibition" in order to complete the requirements of the PYP.  This year, Teddy was the ONE lucky 5th grader who had to do the exhibition.  (Teddy's only other class mate, Ty moved a couple months ago.)  To help Teddy out, so he would not have to do it on his own, the 4th grades did a watered down version of the exhibition.  Next year they will have to do the full blown exhibition. 
I can tell you that Teddy's project was about bringing a better "quality of life" to the kids in Tembag.  I can't tell you all the details... Bad memory!  Don't get me wrong, the kids of Tembagapura have a great "quality of life"....  What Teddy was trying to identify, in his project, is what other activities can be brought in like football, rock climbing, volleyball, etc. for the kids to be involved in, in Tembagapura.
It is a pretty big project for the 5th graders.  I would equate it to having to do a science fair project when I was growing up.  Teddy did way better at his exhibition, than I did at my science project! :)
Here is Teddy's project board...

The crowd...  There was more than that, I just couldn't fit them all in to the picture. :)

Teddy with his teacher and dad.  Probably chatting about hunting... or something... :)

Teddy had two mentors during his project, Mr and Mrs C.  Mr. C is the PE teacher I wrote about in a previous post.  Mrs. C is Mersades language/arts teacher.  They had really nice things to say about Tedders. :)

Here is Teddy with his classmates, the 4th graders, and his Teacher Mr. M.  They all sang a song to close the night.

After the song, our Vice Principal, gave Mr. M a Principal's award....  And I quote "For his Awesomeness! Because Mr. M is an Awesome teacher!" :)

Next up, his proud parents..... :)  Teddy came to get us out of the crowd during the singing of their song.

And finally, Teddy and his most AWESOME teacher.... Mr. M!  Mr. M has been such a great influence on Teddy this year.  He is highly respected, and I am truly greatful for Mr. M being such a great example for Teddy!

Oh, and one more thing about this night.  You see the shirts the kids, 4th and 5th graders, have on?  Teddy designed them!  The flags represent the nationalities of the students in the class.  Their symbol they designed for their project, is on their right shirt sleeve. 
Excellent Job Teddy!
Love,
Mom
