5th Grade Exhibition
Every year, Farmdale 5th graders host an exhibition for the school community to display all that they have learned during the education at Farmdale Elementary. The students are leaders of this project coming up with the topic and presentation format while working together as a group. Presentations are given in English and in Spanish.
Each 5th grade student at Farmdale Elementary will embark on a PYP journey called Exhibition. As a student in the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Program, every 5th grader is involved in an extended inquiry related to on of the 5 transdisciplinary themes. The project represents the culmination of the experiences your child has had as an IB learner at Farmdale. Here are some of the Projects they have worked on.
