Claymation Videos
During the first grade IB (International Baccalaureate) PYP (Primary Years Programme) unit taught under the Transdisciplinary Theme: How We Express Ourselves, the students were learning about the concept: Families are unique. This concept (known as a CENTRAL IDEA) was taught through the following guiding questions:
What are some examples of how families live in our Saint Luke Community?
How do families use the natural resources of Washington to decide how to build a home?
Why do families move?
These questions directly relate to first grade social studies standards. For the end-of-unit project, each child made a claymation video demonstrating their understanding of how their family is unique.
