I will teach the course using the approaches to teaching dictated by the IB. This means that the course will be: based on inquiry, focused on conceptual understanding, developed in local and global contexts, focused on effective teamwork and collaboration, differentiated to meet the needs of all learners, and informed by formative and summative assessment.
~ 3 hrs of studying/homework per week.
I truly enjoy teaching all the different types of students that IB attracts.
Each student’s marking period (MP) grade will be based on the following:
