PYP 8 NewsDear Parents,Last week PYP 8 had a great time wrapping up Unit 2 by conducting their very own science experiments. Students were given the opportunity to apply their knowledge of the scientific method to learn about a natural phenomena they were interested in.This week we are beginning Unit 3 to investigate bias and perspective in different media types. We are also looking forward to another excellent assembly by PYP 8 Sigma. Hope to see you there!
