This set of posters identify the three key concepts that are contributed by mathematics to the MYP Key Concepts. Different images are used for the concepts so that students can see how these big ideas cross over into different areas.

MYP Maths 4 and 5 Real-World Application task MYP Objectives being assessed are C and D. This task requires students to graph exponential models, use exponential equations and then use additional information to assess whether a headline about whether wolves are endangering an elk population. Task specific rubrics are included. This task is modeled on the MYP eAssessment tasks from the onscreen exams.

An MYP real world assessment task. Assessing MYP Objectives D and C. This assessment gets students to work with real data and model exponential curves and equations. Task specific rubrics are included.

This is a slide show that can be used to help understand what students need to do for each part of the MYP skill “Investigating Patterns”

This video helps to unpack what students need to do for each strand for the MYP Skill objective “Applying Mathematics in Real World Situations” (D). The problem used is from the IB Skills book which is published by Hodder.
