The MYP is comprised of eight subject groups: Arts, Design, Individuals and Society, Language Acquisition, Language and Literature, Mathematics. Physical and Health Education, Sciences. In addition, there are the MYP projects: Personal Project and Service and Action.
Assessment is integral to all teaching and learning. MYP assessment requires teachers to assess the prescribed subject-group objectives using the assessment criteria for each subject group. In order to provide students with opportunities to achieve at the highest level, MYP teachers develop rigorous tasks that embrace a variety of assessment strategies. As units of study unfold, teachers will conduct formative assessments in order to assess student learning and adjust instruction where necessary to best meet the needs of the students. Formative assessments are essentially the practice leading up to a final summative assessment.
At EIS, middle school students will receive two grades:
an MYP grade based on a grade scale of 1-7
and a Finnish Curriculum grade based on a grade scale of 4-10.
Note: MYP grades are given for each of the 8 subject groups at the end of each school year.
MYP grades are based on four criteria: A, B, C and D. Each criteria is assessed on a scale of 1-8 points, with a final total out of 32.
