GRADE: TEN
GOALS
The language A: language and literature course aims to develop in students skills of textual analysis and the understanding that texts, both literary and non-literary, can be seen as autonomous yet simultaneously
related to culturally determined reading practices. An understanding of the ways in which formal elements are used to create meaning in a text is combined with an exploration of how that meaning is affected by
reading practices that are culturally defined and by the circumstances of production and reception. The following are the Area goals for the two-year Program:
1. Introduce students to a range of texts from different periods, styles and genres
2. Develop in students the ability to engage in close, detailed analysis of individual texts and make relevant connections
3. Develop the students’ powers of expression, both in oral and written communication
4. Encourage students to recognize the importance of the contexts in which texts are written and received
5. Encourage, through the study of texts, an appreciation of the different perspectives of people from other cultures, and how these perspectives construct meaning
6. Encourage students to appreciate the formal, stylistic and aesthetic qualities of texts
7. Promote in students an enjoyment of, and lifelong interest in, language and literature.
8. Develop in students an understanding of how language, culture and context determine the ways in which meaning is constructed in texts
9. Encourage students to think critically about the different interactions between text, audience and purpose.

DESCRIPTION OF PLANNER FEATURES
TOPIC: It must be worded just like each subject guide presents it (DP) by using each guide’s specific nomenclature. For instance; 1.1 Statistics. As far as MYP is concerned, wording should follow the institutional contents sequence.
WEEK OR TIME
(Class by class
dates must be
written here. For
some subjects this
happens on a
weekly basis; for
some others, on a
daily basis. These
times are flexible
according to the
subject.
APPROACHES TO LEARNING (ATL): Use the ATL skills areas mentioned in the “MYP: From Principles into Practice” guide, found in the OCC.
-Organization: What organizational tools do I have? What aspects of my organization do I need to develop? How can I best organize myself?
-Collaboration: How do I work with others? What successes have I had when I have worked with others? How can I work with others; how can they work with me?
-Communication: What communication tools do I use? Which ways of communicating do I need to improve on? How can I better communicate my understanding?
-Information Literacy: How can I access information? How do I know if the information is reliable? What will I do with this information?
-Reflection: How do I reflect? How have my reflections helped me learn? What other reflection tools and resources can help me?
-Thinking: How do I think? What tools can help me think in different ways? What planning tools do I have?
-Transfer: What are the “big ideas” of each of the different subjects? Do the big ideas of the subjects overlap? How can I use my knowledge, understanding and skills across subjects?
ACTIVITIES: List of activities to be carried out and their methodology. For instance, debates, exhibitions, SmartBoard class, Power Point presentations, blogs, websites, simulations, readings, etc.
ASSESSMENT: The students need to know the assessment criteria that will be used to evaluate their performance. Information on assessment must be given term by term. Students should be encouraged to reflect upon their own learning process through
self-assessment and peer-assessment. Records of learning evidence must be kept to allow for reflection, so that students are able to reflect upon their achievements and to explain them in front of others. Evidence records allow both students and their
teachers to assess progress in terms of knowledge, abilities, and understanding.
