  Dear MYP 1 learners, Every culture has stories that help explain the world—how it began, how it changes, and even how it might end. In our final mythology lesson, we bring together the three traditions we have explored:  Hindu, Greek, and Norse mythology . Our journey concludes with  Ragnarök , the Norse prophecy of the "Twilight of the Gods."

 Dear students Media is everywhere — on our phones, televisions, posters, and websites. Media helps us learn, connect, and stay informed. But with this power comes responsibility . Ethics means knowing the difference between right and wrong . When media is ethical, it is truthful, fair, respectful, and responsible . Ethical media does not spread false information, hurt people’s feelings, or invade someone’s privacy. Even students are media creators. Every time we post, share, or comment, we make a choice. Asking simple questions like “Is this true?” or “Is this respectful?” helps us become responsible media users. Ethical media builds trust and helps create a safer and kinder world for everyone.
