MYP Interdisciplinary Units

Grades 7, 8 and 9

Image 1  shows an artifact almost at its completed stage following a week-long project for their Interdisciplinary Unit. Grade 7 students engaged in researching an upcycling project and producing an artifact using upcycled materials. 

Image 2 shows a mechanical toy produced by a grade 8 student. It has a rotating motion designed to teach a child about mechanics, with weight added to the moving part to keep it steady. The toy was made and finished in a way where there were no sharp corners or edges, to ensure the child can enjoy using it safely. 

Image 3-7 shows a range of lamps produced by grade 9 students. They are innovative designs, not typically found at home on a study desk or bedside locker. The students also learned how to create and connect a simple 3-way circuit, using a battery, switch and output source, such as a bulb or an LED.
