Integrating Math Authentically Into the IB PYP Inquiry
I’m delighted to have teamed up with PYP teacher, Parvana Guliyeva again, to share these strategies for integrating maths into the inquiry authentically. Parvana is currently teaching PYP4 at The International Sharing school in Lisbon, Portugal. You can reach her on Instagram @space_for_learning. Scroll down to watch the video below. You may remember Parvana from a previous collaboration when she shared her ideas for inclusive assessment and bringing a greater degree of AGENCY to our students with reflection & assessment. You can read more about assessment tools and strategies here and link to the video in this article.
And of course, if you are looking for a ready-to-go professional development workshop packed full of practical strategies for bringing agency into assessment for ALL age levels, take a look at my workshop package.
As you watch the following video, consider our transdisciplinary approach and how we plan to investigate through concepts and skills-based learning experiences. Look for:
- Real-world connections
- Open-ended questions
- Looking at maths through concepts
- Skills-based learning experiences ( ATL Skills)
- Transdisciplinary planning.
As always, please do drop your own ideas or questions in the comments below. Enjoy! 
P.S. My online course, Essentials for Inquiry, provides a comprehensive 12+ hours of video-based professional development that will get you off to a confident start with student led inquiry.
