Each
grade level teaches 6 IB Units of Inquiry which support the BVSD
curriculum and standards. These IB units are focused around 6
trans-disciplinary themes: who we are, where we are in time and
place, how we express ourselves, how the world works, how we organize
ourselves, sharing the planet. These units are planned by the
grade level team of teachers and then examined by all the grade
level teachers to make sure there is a relationship between the
units taught at kindergarten through fifth grade.
