I have been teaching IB MYP Science and IBDP Biology for over 20 years in a variety of international schools around the world. I am an IB examiner and I mark IB Biology Extended Essays and IB Biology SL Paper 2 examinations. I have made many resources to aid teaching and learning for the IB Diploma Biology and IB MYP Science courses. Now I am sharing these resources with you.
I believe in that Science allows students to understand the world around them and take meaningful action for the future.

As an IBDP Assistant Examiner with 27 years experience teaching IB Diploma Biology and IB MYP Science, I have created multiple resources which I am uploading to TES now.
Students need a good understanding of the IB command terms in order to answer IB Diploma Science exam questions successfully. Created by an IB Diploma Biology Assistant Examiner. You can help your students understand the IB Command terms using this crossword puzzle, and it allows you to determine how well your students understand the command terms.
All of the IBDP Group 4 Sciences use the same set of command terms, so this crossword puzzle can also be used in Chemistry, Physics, Environmental Systems and Societies, and Sports, Exercise and Health Science.
