DP News: Grade 10 DP Retreat Update

This week the grade 10 students are taking a break from their classes for an introduction to the Diploma Programme. By the end of the week the grade 10 students will have visited and sat in on every single course AISL offers, in order to help make informed decisions about course selection. Included in the orientation and classroom visits, they had the opportunity to ask questions to current grade 11 and 12 students. Thanks to Emma, Ntama, Michela, Jessica, Jesse, Vyan, Fei Ya, Sage, Mwape, and Mariana, for answering the students' questions honestly! Students asked questions such as, "What's it like to take two science courses at higher level?" and "What course selection decision are you most happy about?" as well as the ultimate question, "Is the IB really as hard as some kids say it is?" The conclusions from the 45-minute conversation are:
1. Choose courses that interest you and let your passion guide you through the two years.
2. You can handle the course work if you take it all one day at a time; there is no need to stress about it!
3. Do not procrastinate; the work starts on Day 1 of grade 11, and you don't have any time to lose! 
4. Math Studies is an SL class, just like Math SL. One isn't easier than the other- they teach different themes and concepts!
In addition to the asking questions in the student panel, the grade 10 students had a chance to take a career survey and practice navigating through the many different databases from universities around the world that details entrance requirements. Parents, please join Julie Baldry and Francesca Mulazzi in Tuesday's 7:30am Information Session about the Diploma Programme and the diploma choices for your child.
