OYIS believes that literacy is transformative. We work hard to embrace and nurture literacy skills for all of our students.
We celebrated Literacy Week across all our PYP, MYP and DP programmes. PYP parents visited their children’s classrooms to observe literacy learning first hand; MYP students taught writing and phrases from their home languages like Korean, Italian and Mandarin to PYP students; and DP and MYP students coordinated a haiku competition. Students from PYP and grades 7-8 dressed up as their favorite book characters to recognize their love of reading. There was also a PYP book swap, literacy walks and guest storytellers for Early Childhood classes, literacy-themed quiz games, and other fun events organized by students and teachers. It was brilliant to see students and staff from across the school come together to recognize the impact that reading, writing, words and language have on our lives!
