The assessment criteria in the IB MYP for Grade 10 are designed to evaluate students’ performance in Language Acquisition (Group 2) and Language and Literature (Group 1). Each project or activity is assessed based on specific criteria that provide clarity on what is expected from the students.
These criteria are applied across various engaging projects such as cultural blogs, film reviews, role-play scenarios, travel brochures, and pen-pal exchanges, all designed to enhance students' linguistic competence and intercultural understanding.
