As part of our How the World Works Unit, PYP1 has been exploring the uniqueness of Earth and our Solar System. To start the unit, we looked at galactic images, and the students shared their knowledge and many queries. We began investigating the eight planets in our Solar System from this curiosity. Our students delved deeper into each earth through their research, culminating in presentations to the class. Our students' thinking and communication skills were further tested in our field trip to the Tbilisi Digital Museum. We enjoyed flying through the Solar System in the planetarium, where we visited the planets and moons about which we had learned so much. We organized a Space Exhibition and different performances to celebrate all we had explored and learned. The students showed fantastic independence and self-management skills during the performances. We celebrated with certificates and singing our favorite space songs.

The Mother Language Day Assembly for primary students celebrated linguistic diversity and the importance of preserving indigenous languages. Students showcased cultural performances, recited poems, and shared stories in their native languages, aiming to promote understanding and appreciation of different languages and cultures among young learners. In addition to the cultural performances and linguistic showcases, the assembly also featured a book donation drive, encouraging students to contribute literature in various languages to foster a love for reading and multicultural understanding. Furthermore, a poster exhibition adorned the assembly venue, displaying vibrant artwork and informative displays that further emphasized the significance of linguistic diversity and cultural heritage within the PYP program.

European School IB PYP teachers have participated in the in-school IB workshop "Learning and teaching for conceptual understanding" led by the workshop leader Emmanouil Zerai. During the professional development sessions our educators were able to deepen their understanding of concept-based learning and its essential elements and exchange their teaching techniques and experience.

The students' drive to shake up education is unstoppable. Thanks to Solomon Arveladze and his interminable enthusiasm. The second event organized by him, this time the  "Family Feud", turned out to be very interesting and dynamic. Senior students got in on the action, bringing their wit and teamwork to the table in a fun quiz. With each team giving it their all, it was a showdown of brains and camaraderie. Our students prove again that they're not just smart, adroit, and creative, but also fantastic team players.

We are thrilled to share an exciting initiative led by our 12th grader, Maribelle Chu. Maribelle, an exchange student in the Flex program, has brought a wealth of enthusiasm and generosity to our American School of Advanced Studies during her year-long stay. Always eager to assist her peers, Maribelle recently organized a captivating workshop for our 6th and 7th grade students titled "Create Your Dream Life." This workshop was not only engaging but also empowering for the participants. To recognize their efforts, we awarded the winners with certificates of achievement. Maribelle's dedication to fostering growth and inspiration among her peers is truly commendable.
