“Happy Math Christmas” (ep. 3)
Mathematics courses in the EISB Academy specifically help to prepare students for the study of group 5 courses in the IB Diploma Programme (DP). As students progress from the MYP towards the DP, the emphasis on understanding increases as students work towards developing a strong mathematical knowledge base that will allow them to study a wide range of topics. Through this process they also work on communicating their ideas in ways that allow others to understand their thinking.
The aim of all IB programmes is to develop internationally minded people who, recognizing their common humanity and shared guardianship of the planet, help to create a better and more peaceful world
IB learner profile
MYP3, marks the halfway point in our MYP programme. Having completed MYP1 and MYP2, our learners are fully immersed in the MYP philosophy and are steadily on the road of becoming true holistic learners.
In MYP 3, so far, we have been working on:
- Numbers (Properties of numbers, ratios, percentages)
- Algebraic Expressions (simplification, expansion, distributive law)
- Algebraic Identities & Radicals
- Linear (fractional and non-fractional) equations
We have prepared a Christmas Revision Booklet tailor made to our EISB MYP 3 learners. The break is a great opportunity for revision and extra work.
