School Day: School Through Time
On the occasion of the School Day our school got a beautiful birthday gift – a replica of an old classroom that exhibited many authentic items – a chalkboard, a desk, notebooks, books, school bags, school uniform. Highlights of the exhibition include authentic items from the golden 80’s such as Zagi, toys and P.H.E. jersey.
Within the 'School Through Time' project the MYP students embarked on a time-traveling adventure to discover how much life at school has changed. They interviewed their grandparents and parents, presented differences and similarities of the past and present education system using a Venn diagram, engaged in creative writing while taking the school itself as their time machine, employed old visual art techniques such as calligraphy, painting using a feather pen and woodcut, researched how education had changed through different periods of history, explored the engineer Davorin Bazjanac that the street of our school was named after, drew blueprints of a futuristic classroom, composed Matija Gubec school jingle, explored changes in MG school logo designs and proposed a new one, compared education systems across countries trying to find which ones had the best education system in the world, investigated how the curriculum implemented in IB schools in German-, Italian- and French-speaking countries compared to ours...
A peek back in time helped us experience what going to school was like and appreciate all that we are able to benefit from past while getting a glimpse of what the future schooling might look like.
