The following assessment criteria have been established by the IB for language A in the MYP. All final assessment in the final year of the MYP must be based on these assessment criteria even if schools are not registering students for IB-validated grades and certification.


These rubrics serve as guidelines to rubrics developed in class to evaluate our learning, our participation, and our projects.
