Engage your students and connect with the core of the IB with this easy start of year activity. It allows you to get to know your class AND create a display showing off their unique learner profile. Alternatively, a fun activity at any time of the year to lead into learning about or reflecting on the learner profile attributes. Suitable for older primary or secondary students (could be adapted for younger students by making the wording more accessible or including pictures.) How to use: - Each s

Students should be able to: find the equation of a line given two pointsunderstand function notation
In this investigation, students use their knowledge of square numbers, patterns and Pythagoras' theorem to explore two different sets of Pythagorean triples. With scaffolded questions, that decrease as the assessment progresses, students are directed towards specific patterns and relationships to support with finding the general rules. Then students are prompted towards verification and justification, with guidelines as support. Including the assessment, rubric, task-specific clarification, and
In this investigation, students use their knowledge of translation, rotation and reflection to explore the effect on coordinates after transformations. Including the assessment, rubric, task specific clarification, marking guidelines and sample answer. Recommended for MYP3. Optional use of Geogebra to help with transformations, but can be done on paper. This investigation can be purchased as a bundle with 9 others, and a criteria B guide, in the book "Investigating Patterns" on mypmaths.com or t
Our MYP Maths criterion A formative tasks should take students 30-45 minutes making them perfect for homework, independent practice or a formative check before an end of unit assessment. Comes with solutions to provide quick feedback and guide next steps based on identified gaps.

For students intending to start an IB DP Mathematics course in the next few months, assess how prepared they are and identify which areas they should focus on ahead of the move. This can be used to inform independent revision or class time before the school year concludes. In addition, it could be used to assess students transferring in to an IB school to check prior knowledge. 48 non-calculator questions (including 4 "HL only" for those looking at the higher level course) covering the spectrum
