DP CAS Fair 2023

In addition to the Pohela Boishakh concert on the 11th of May, the DP-1 students held a CAS
Fair where they created stalls and sold food and games. Well spoiler alert, it was a major
success! Teachers and students of all grades came to visit the stalls and they were buying
everything. The gaming stall held by Adian and Mashnoon was never empty. We should have
really brought more food.


The CAS fair was a fulfilling experience for all the DP-1 students as we are going to donate the
profits to charity. This was quite an experience for all the students of DP-1 as there was a lot of
work needed to be done in short amounts of time especially with the crowds. Having to manage
the food efficiently while managing the change was quite a challenge for all the stalls but
thankfully the students managed to keep proper accounts.




This was the first time DP-1 students created a stall like this and we should have been more
prepared for the tremendous crowds, especially the Primary and pre-primary students. Since
some stalls did run out of stock pretty fast, we should have been more aware of the amount of
students in the school. But overall it was very successful, there was no one without food so
there was no worries about that. Everyone seemed to have a very fun time.

Learning TOK in a fun way!

  TOK, also known as Theory of Knowledge, plays a special role in the IB Diploma Programme as it helps students reflect on the nature of knowledge and understand how they know what they know. Since the beginning of the new academic year, DP-1 students have started to take a look at the concepts and ideas of TOK. TOK has over 12 concepts which includes: Power, Culture, Responsibility, Truth, Perspective, Values, Objectivity, Justification, Evidence, Explanation, Interpretation and Certainty, along with 4 knowledge frameworks including Scope, Perspectives, Methods and Tools and last but not least, Ethics.    Recently, students of DP-1 have done a fun activity named “TOK Object Based Activity.” In a previous class, each student was given a card which had a specific TOK concept written on it and was told to explain it. In the following class, students were asked to bring an object which represented their given TOK concept. I must say, some of us had some very unique ideas...

Visit to EMK Center: A Hands-On Adventure in Technology and Innovation

Students from IB DP Year 2 and WACE 11 had an exciting and educational visit to the EMK Center, diving into the world of technology through interactive activities. The day began with a fun introduction to Makey Makey, where students turned everyday objects like paper and pencil into touchpads, blending creativity with basic electronics. They then engaged in a problem-solving session, learning the importance of asking the right questions before diving into solutions. Next, the students experienced the thrill of coding with a drone flying activity, where they controlled mini drones using tools similar to Scratch. Additionally, they got hands-on experience with SketchUp software, creating 3D models of houses, which helped them understand the basics of design and architecture. A key highlight of the visit was exploring Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), where students immersed themselves in virtual environments and learned about the practical uses of these cutting-edge techno...
