Goal – states the problem or challenge to be resolved.

Role – explains who students are in the scenario and what they are being asked to do.

Audience – who the students are solving the problem for, who they need to convince of the validity and success of their solution for the problem. (Remember, the audience is not limited to the instructor.)

Situation – provides the context of the situation and any additional factors that could impede the resolution of the problem.

Product, Performance, and Purpose – explains the product or performance that needs to be created and its larger purpose.

Standards and Criteria for Success – dictates the standards that must be met and how the work will be judged by the assumed audience.

For now, try writing out the GRASP for a unit you are teaching or will be teaching.

Yes. Not every service activity has to be associated with a specific MYP unit. Both stand-alone and curriculum based approaches to service can be valuable, providing meaningful opportunities for student engagement and participation in service. Extra-curricular or co-curricular activities―including individual and family community service activities―can also provide opportunities for students to demonstrate learning outcomes for service. However, the MYP encourages schools to explore the many ways that service can be incorporated into the curriculum, particularly in the “action” aspect of the unit-planning process. Interdisciplinary units can offer especially powerful opportunities to explore service as action. ]]> 2023-01-06 18:06:10 UTC https://padlet.com/khillman10/8g3c1v8hnt1x97iy/wish/2435921363 khillman10 https://padlet.com/khillman10/8g3c1v8hnt1x97iy/wish/2435921364 In our parents survey, we asked that they identify 3 profiles they would like to see their student grow during their time at MMS, the most popular choices were: Communicator, Knowledgeable, and Balanced.]]> 2023-01-06 18:06:10 UTC https://padlet.com/khillman10/8g3c1v8hnt1x97iy/wish/2435921364 khillman10 https://padlet.com/khillman10/8g3c1v8hnt1x97iy/wish/2435921365 Our ATL (approaches to learning) Skills are broken down into 5 major categories. We will look at a specific skill in the Communication category. At MMS, we divide ALL ATL skills by subject area, so each teacher is not responsible for explicitly teaching every single skill.

Communication: Use intercultural understanding to interpret communication.

Learning is just one of the areas that a school must demonstrate competency in in order to maintain their World School recognition. The other areas are: Purpose, Environment, and Culture. 

Learning is the standard in which teachers hold the most responsibility. Let's get started!
