Week 2 - climatic and geographical features

A Summary of Week 2


Last week students had an opportunity to investigate into the 3 major climate zones: polar, temperate and tropical with specific focus on sunlight, temperature, humidity, rain and wind in each region. Students worked together in small groups as they discussed and evaluated useful facts that would help them understand how these climate factors influence and behave in each zone. A lot of research was involved and a lot of questions were asked!

Students in PYP 7 B investigating into the polar zone.


We moved on to major landforms and worked in large group to describe, represent, and discover how they were formed. We also found numerous interesting facts about landforms around the world. This engagement helped us reflect on our research skills and to think about our strengths and weaknesses as a group as well as individually.

In Maths, we worked on data handling with specific focus on plotting and interpreting various graphs. Students also had opportunities to practice their mental Maths skills.
