MYP Service as Action: A Journey of Sharing and Empathy

A Meaningful Trip of MYP Middle School Students

The MYP middle school students at Tesla School recently had a meaningful trip to an animal rescue center, bringing with them love and responsibility for the community. After several days of planning, fundraising, and collecting necessary items, the students personally handed out practical gifts such as food and supplies to the animals at the shelter. While their contributions may seem small, they were filled with affection and responsibility, showcasing a spirit of sharing and kindness.

Community Project: The First Steps Toward Becoming Global Citizens

This project is not only a meaningful community activity, but also a journey for Tesla students to develop life skills, learn empathy, and share with those in need. These valuable lessons help them realize the importance of contributing to and caring for the community around them, while also cultivating the moral qualities necessary to become responsible and compassionate global citizens.

The Journey Toward Becoming Global Citizens: The Qualities of IB Students

This trip is a testament to the distinctive qualities of IB students, including creativity, effective communication, collaboration, and concern for the community. The IB program emphasizes not only knowledge development but also encourages students to become proactive individuals who take responsibility for society, understand and respect cultural diversity, and are always ready to act for the common good.

The qualities of IB students include:

• Responsibility: IB students are trained to be aware of social and environmental issues and are ready to take action to create positive change.
• Creativity and Critical Thinking: Students not only learn but also develop independent and creative thinking skills to effectively solve problems.
• Communication and Collaboration Skills: IB students are encouraged to work in teams and communicate effectively to harness the collective strength of the group.
• Global Mindset: One of the goals of the IB program is to nurture global citizens who care about global issues and take responsible action.

The Journey of Future Global Citizens

Through this activity, students not only learn how to work in teams, organize, and plan but also gain a deep understanding of the value of sharing and acting for a better community. These steps are the first building blocks on the long road to becoming responsible individuals who are ready to contribute to society and make positive changes in the future.
