The IB PYP Wing conducted Inter-House Poetry-Recitation Competition for Grades I & II and Just A Minute (JAM) Session for Grades III to V. Both competition revolved around themes relating to how we Share our Planet, and had our budding eco-warriors speak up for conservation and more!

The students of Grades I & II inspired the audience to take action by reciting poems such ‘Conserve Water Every Day’, ‘I will Save the Earth’, ‘Water, Water Everywhere’, ‘Earth is Our Home’, ‘Drops of Water’, etc. They chose topics that reflected their Unit of Inquiry on ‘Environment’. The participants were judged on the basis of their preparation, organization, presence of mind, eye contact, content and voice modulation.

On the other hand, the JAM session had students compete in ‘a minute to win it’. Students from across Grades III to V spoke on the spot on themes such as ‘Unity in Diversity’, ‘Save the Environment’, ‘Ethnic Expressions’, ‘Effects of Pollution’, ‘Continents’, ‘Endangered Animals’, ‘Religion’, etc. The students were able to think on their feet and spontaneously articulate their thoughts in a very clear and persuasive way, by connecting the themes to their real-world experiences through field trips as well as the inquiries they had undertaken.
