In their exploration of the effects of technology on climate change, PYPX students employed Visual Thinking Routines (VTRs) to delve into both positive and negative aspects.

Tug of War: Using the Tug of War VTR, learners visually represented the dichotomy of technology's impact on climate change. Through surveys conducted among various individuals, they captured diverse perspectives on this crucial issue.

Fishbone Analysis: Through the Fishbone template, students analyzed the intricate web of causes and effects surrounding technology's influence on climate change. Deep research into these factors provided valuable insights into the multifaceted nature of the challenge we face.

These VTRs not only facilitated a deeper understanding but also encouraged critical thinking and engagement with real-world issues, empowering students to contribute meaningfully to discussions surrounding climate change mitigation and adaptation.

Our learners focused on their presentation on the impact of technology on climate change. Our students have diligently developed the unit matrix, finalized the lines of inquiry, and crafted a PowerPoint presentation centered around the theme of technology's influence on climate change. They have actively researched and curated content from various articles to ensure the coherence and relevance of their presentation.

Learners observed the POI wall in the school, focusing on the Theme and its descriptors. Students began by examining the POI wall in the school, reviewing all theme descriptors alongside the TD Theme. They then engaged in discussions about their chosen TD Theme and the specific main idea of the theme descriptor they are concentrating on. 

The learner created this logo on climate change by dividing a globe into two halves. On one side, they depicted pollution with gray and brown colors, while the other side, in blue and green, represents a healthy Earth. However, even the healthy side is turning gray, indicating the impact of climate change. Through this logo, the student urges action to protect our planet.

Strong Symbolism: The use of a globe divided in two is an excellent choice. It clearly highlights the issue of climate change.

Color Contrast: Gray and brown for pollution versus blue and green for a healthy Earth creates a stark contrast. The spreading gray emphasizes the urgency of taking action.

Call to Action: The logo itself is a call to protect our planet by depicting the negative consequences of inaction.

Collaborating closely with our music teacher, Mr. Godson, our learners took an innovative approach to exploring the impact of technology. Together, they transformed a thought-provoking poem on the positive and negative effects of technology into an engaging rap. 

With Mr. Godson's guidance and expertise, these students infused rhythm and tone into their lyrics, creating a dynamic and impactful piece. As they prepare for their stage presentation at the PYPX, they are not only honing their musical skills but also delving deep into the complexities of technology's influence on our lives. 

This collaborative effort exemplifies the power of creativity and collaboration in education, as students harness the expressive medium of music to convey their insights and reflections on contemporary issues. Stay tuned as they take the stage to share their unique perspective with the school community! 

Our students fully immersed themselves in the process of crafting the subheadings of the Unit matrix. With dedication and enthusiasm, they identified key issues related to their chosen theme and embarked on thorough research to deepen their understanding. Their goal? To generate innovative ideas and lay the groundwork for a comprehensive action plan. 

One particular focus of their research has been the intersection of technology and climate change. Recognizing the significant impact that technology can have on environmental sustainability, they have passionately explored ways to harness its potential as a force for positive change. Empowered by their knowledge and driven by a shared commitment to making a difference, they are emerging as catalysts for action, poised to lead the charge toward a more sustainable future. 

Through their efforts, our students are not only demonstrating academic rigor but also embodying the core values of inquiry, action, and global citizenship. As they take on the role of torchbearers for positive change, they inspire us all to embrace our responsibility as stewards of the planet and agents of meaningful transformation.
