Our transdisciplinary-theme for this unit is How the World Works. The Central Idea is ‘The interpretation of objects may be changed by light’ and the Lines of Inquiry are:

• Sources of light
• Reflection of light on different states of surfaces
• How light is used in life

The key concepts the students develop throughout this unit are form, function, and connection. Furthermore, the related concepts are light and interpretation.

Not only academic skills, EY 1 students will also develop certain learner profiles and attitudes, which are inquirer, thinker, knowledgeable, commitment, curiosity, and independence.

First, we will investigate a lot of things in order for them to be knowledgeable of various sources of light. Moreover, to be an inquirer and a thinker, we stimulate students’ curiosity by asking them to find out how reflection of light on different states of surfaces look like. Last but not least, they will explain the use of light in their life.

For the summative assessment, students will report their experiment about how light changes the way we see things accoeding to distance, surface and the source of light itself.
