The IB PYP Social Science week 2017 is being observed at DRSIS from the beginning of the 2nd to 7th September 2017 whereby a myriad of theme based assembly activities are being carried out by the PYP students of Grades I to V. Day 1 began with a song presentation on ‘Importance of Water’ and ‘Conservation of Water’ relating to their topic, ‘Natural Resources’ and ‘Taking Action on Saving Earth’ by Grade I Daisy and Daffodil respectively. Grade II presented a song on ‘Save the Earth’. The aim was to not only create awareness among the students about Earth’s environment, but also to sensitise them to the grave problems of the water crisis and its consequences in India and around the world. They shared their ideas on saving water through a song and showcased the importance of going green today for a better tomorrow.
Grades III Daisy and Daffodil gave a presentation on ‘Greetings Around the World’. They spoke about the importance of greetings and how people greet in different countries. The presentation was indeed very entertaining and comprehensive as each one of them presented the greeting styles through beautiful demonstrations.
Grades IV Daisy and Daffodil presented the song on ‘What a Wonderful World’ as they learned about the different states of India and their unity in diversity. They appreciated the diversity of nature and living beings through the song. The students had an exciting experience learning more about India’s heritage and culture.
This was then followed by a dance on ‘Unity in Diversity’ by Grade V students to show the diversity of India and to express their understanding of the theme –‘Where We Are in Place and Time’. They represented the traditional dresses and celebrations of different states of India through the song ‘I am Just Like You’.
The enthusiastic participation of the students in depicting the current social issues was indeed a great platform for learning. The students had an enriching and enjoyable experience.
