DK IB Collection: PYP
The IB PYP Collection of eighteen books and the IB PYP Lesson Plan are designed by teachers and experts to support educators in the delivery of key PYP topics.
The IB PYP book collection is grouped around the six transdisciplinary themes to support teaching and learning, and foster student agency, transdisciplinary understanding and international mindedness:
- Who we are
- Where we are in time and place
- How we express ourselves
- How the world works
- How we organise ourselves
- Sharing the planet
Each highly illustrated and fact-packed title is perfect for developing ATL skills as well as key concepts. Details of how we have mapped these six themes across the 18 books can be found in the IB PYP Lesson Plan.
