To reinforce the themes in PYP, we organize Field visits for each theme. Field trips expand children learning through active hands-on experience with the rich resources of the local community. It increase student knowledge and understanding of a subject and add realism to the topic of study.The learning that we do beyond the four walls of the classroom not only impacts our students, allowing them to make meaningful connections and realizations but also has an impact on the location and people that we visit.Field trips provide students with an opportunity to reinforce and integrate their academic, social and emotional development beyond the scope of what the classroom can afford.
PYP grade 1 organized field visits according to the different themes like,visit to Biology lab in CISFG,RCF Kapurthala,Old age home,Guest lecture included Sign language,Nature walk etc.
The students were taken to the supermarket as per the requirements of the ongoing theme "How we organize ourselves" with the central idea : "Money plays an important role as a system of exchange in the world”
Each student possessed Rs. 100. They had to manage the money to buy eatables .Some students were able to save while others spent all. Overall, it was a wonderful experience for the kids. They used their management skills and thinking skills.
