IB Learner Profile COMMUNICATOR inquiry-based lessons, activities for PYP & MYP

Help your students truly understand the IB Learner Profile attributes by explicitly teaching them! IB PYP and MYP students are expected to know about the Learner Profile, but we as teachers are given very little guidance as to how to teach the attributes. This is why I have developed a series of Google Slide presentations that are ready to use with your class without much prep or other resources required (other than chart paper, post-it notes, etc).

This Communicator presentation has enough content for 8-10 lessons that you can use flexibly in your class, either as a mini-unit, or throughout the year.

These fun and varied lessons would work well in PYP classes during morning meeting time, and in MYP during Homeroom or Advisory lessons.

Includes:

• Official IB definition as well as child-friendly and ESL-friendly definition of Communicator.
• 8-10 no-prep, authentic, active learning engagements (not worksheets)
• A variety of teaching strategies - modelling inquiry-based teaching for you.
• Transdisciplinary learning (language, math, drama, art, etc)
• Celebration of multilingualism
• Social Emotional Learning - assertive communication techniques
• Focus on self-expression and creativity as a communicator
• Fun games and literature-based activities
• Videos and read-aloud
• Teacher notes and suggestions
• Activities leading to class displays

Don't recreate the wheel or be left in the dark about how to teach being a Communicator. This Google Slideshow has all you need!

All my resources are hands-on, open-ended, easy for teachers, and engaging for kids!
