Well, as you know, taking action is a vital part of the PYP Inquiry Cycle. And since it’s so important, I want to do an entire blog post about it. Action in the PYP Inquiry Cycle is something that is student led, related to the issue that the students researched, and better if the student came up with the idea. Action can come in different forms, some better, some not as good.
As you know, Me and two of my exhibition group members decided to take action by going on a beach cleanup. Because we researched “Discovery of Manmade Materials”, I thought It was a good way to take action, and since we are actually going down there and doing the work, it probably was. I never knew there would be so much plastic on the beach. The whole beach was literally covered in plastic. We collected around 30 huge garbage bags and the sad thing was, after we cleaned the beach up, it comes back in three days.
Today, we got together to discuss action, and we received a ladder of participation. Basically, it showed a different type of action on a different rung. I think my action was on a higher rung, but not the highest, as my art teacher Ms. Murray gave me the idea to do a beach cleanup. Still, it was a really good idea, and I’m probably going to be doing some more.
