We all have the IB language guides and we all have the same thought: It would be way easier to have this in a table or at least in a different format. Yeah! I had that same thought until I got bored of it and started just putting everything in a easier format to work with.
Then I couldn't stop myself there and I kept creating resources to complement the rubrics. Along with the rubrics I have been working on more documents that come in handy for multiple purposes.
Assessment outline: This document is a simple summary of the assessment.
Clarifications: these documents come directly from the IB, just to make easier to have a big picture of the paper.
Connection home-school: this documents have a brief explanation of the paper (or exam), key information that families and students must know and more useful information like the word count or if they can or can not use dictionaries. Their purpose is to inform families and students at the beginning of Year 1, making sure they know the structure of the program and what our students are going to be required to learn and be able to do at the end of the program.
DP Unit Planner: a template with guidance that fits the IB format.
Descriptors for final scores: [Google doc] On this document you will find the descriptors from the IB to get to know better how a 7 looks like.
IB Profile: Simple, here you'll find the IB Profile in Spanish with links to visual resources and activities ready to take to class.
Tips for papers: thoughts, tips based on my own and my students experience.
