Attitudes

**Attitudes: what do we want students to feel, value and demonstrate?**

IB feels it is vital to focus on the development of personal attitudes towards people, towards the environment and towards learning. PYP is making a committment to a values-laden curriculum.

The PYP attitudes are:
 * appreciation
 * commitment
 * confidence
 * cooperation
 * creativity
 * curiosity
 * empathy
 * enthusiasm
 * independence
 * integrity
 * respect
 * tolerance

Remember, students need to so teachers interprete and model these attitudes. We should also be looking for authentic demonstrations of these attitudes in the daily lives of our students.
