First and second graders at YingHua International School presented their IB PYP Unit of Inquiry, “Voices From the Past,” exploring history, sound waves, and how voices can inspire change. Students shared their learning in English and Chinese, investigating historical figures, demonstrating scientific concepts, and practicing public speaking. This transdisciplinary project highlights hands-on learning, student agency, and the power of young learners using their voices to make a positive difference.
