BOLD TEACHING. EXCEPTIONAL LEARNING.

IB Corner

What is the IB Corner?

This is a project from our former IB Coordinator, Sammy Lyke, where she worked with students to showcase a different IB Learner Profile Attribute every month. The purpose of the IB Learner Profile Attributes is focusing on the whole person as a lifelong learner. The goal of the IB is to “develop internationally minded people who, recognizing their common humanity and shared guardianship of the planet help to create a better and more peaceful world.” Developing lifelong learners who are positive contributors to society is something we at ABIS strive to achieve. Please use the links below to participate in activities, games and stories to help promote these common values within our children.

February – PRINCIPLED

Especially during the last 10 months, it seems we have had to get used to a lot of regulations and we have had to be very principled. But being principled doesn’t just mean behaving and following the rules. Amongst many other things, it also includes taking responsibility, acting with integrity and honesty or showing compassion and caring.
