MYP Grade 7 Students Embark on Their Passion Project Journeys!

All of our MYP Grade 7 students have begun their Passion Projects. During three recent advisory sessions, students have reflected on their interests, wonderings, and concerns and have turned these into possible project ideas.  They have been developing Passion Project Plans and learning about different ways to gather information through the MISO Brainstorming Document. During our next sessions together they will be finalizing their plans and researching their topics. Please ask your son or daughter about his or her project idea! This is a wonderful opportunity for students to develop ATL skills such as research, self-management, communication, and critical thinking by delving into an area of personal interest.

Students have a huge range of goals that reflect their diverse interests as learners: learning Japanese, developing a teen-friendly cookbook, creating dry-land training for water-skiing, following a training program to run a 5k, and learning to code- just to name a few!

The resources we are using for this unit may be found on the Passion Project Libguide (password is the same as the one for the parent portal).
