Personal Project Fair 2023

Grade 10 students knocked their MYP Personal Projects out of the park this year. Students showcased their work that ranged from dog yoga, a short anime movie, a skin care line to a cookbook inspired by family and cultural recipes.

What is the MYP Personal Project?

The MYP Personal Project is for Grade 10 students, those in the final year of the Middle Years Programme. These students, who are headed to the Diploma Programme next school year, have been working to complete their projects since the end of Grade 9, when they were first introduced to it.

Students complete three elements for the Personal Project:

• Product or outcome – evidence of tangible or intangible results: what the student was aiming to achieve or create
• Process journal – ideas, success criteria, developments, challenges, plans, research, possible solutions and progress reports
• Report – an account of the project and its impact, to a structure that follows the assessment criteria. The report includes a bibliography and evidence from the process journal that documents students’ development and achievements

During the Personal Project Fair, students showcase their learning to the school community, showing what it means to be a lifelong IB learner.
