Whether you're the parent of a freshman getting acclimated to the International Baccalaureate Program or of a senior sailing toward final assessments, you'll watch your students improve their reading, writing, and reasoning skills in IB English.
This website will help you keep an eye on your students' grades and familiarize you with the course that is designed to help your students think and write critically about literature. Even if your students aren't avid readers or a big fans of the works we read, the skills they learn in this class are transferable. Whatever their cumulative averages might be, they will strengthen their ability to analyze and communicate in their personal lives and in their future scholarly pursuits. |
