The Ecology
On May 27th children’s poet Mariam Tsiklauri paid a visit to the European School. She met students from PYP grade four and two and talked with them about their units of inquiry. Second graders read the poems written by Mariam and created posters about ecosystems. Fourth graders asked Mariam questions about ecology and wrote a poem.
“If we pay attention and listen to the world, it will tell us what bothers it…” said Mariam.
During the meeting with the famous poet, students realized that if we walk in the nature, see forests and rivers, listen to the birds and silence, we won’t throw any garbage on the ground; we won’t waste paper and won’t leave water taps open when we don’t need them; we will walk instead of using cars all the time.
Together with the poet students wrote a poem using the words connected to their topic, ecology.
