BEING BALANCED!
This group of talented learners came to my office to share a dance they had choreographed and practised themselves. They said that the song (Waka Waka - This Time For Africa, by Shakira) was one of their fitness songs, and they had enjoyed it so much they made up the dance. They have decided to make up a dance for every new song each week so I am looking forward to seeing them again! Being balanced is about understanding the importance of balancing different aspects of our lives—intellectual, physical, and emotional—to achieve well-being for ourselves and others. These motivated and creative learners are certainly enjoying a balance in their school lives! Want to check out the ten attributes of the Learner Profile in PYP? See the attached photo. Chat to your children about the attributes and see if they can name times they showed an attribute in the way they thought, spoke or acted.
