Language Acquisition in the MYP
The Language Acquisition in the MYP provides students with the opportunity to develop insights into the features, processes and craft of language and the concept of culture, and to realize that there are diverse ways of living, behaving and viewing the world. Language acquisition in the MYP aims to develop a respect for, and understanding of, other languages and cultures, and is equally designed to equip the student with a skills base to facilitate further language learning. The language acquisition subject group objectives represent some of the essential processes of language and have been organized under the same four communicative processes for each of the six phases in order to assist teachers with planning, teaching and assessing. They are as follows.
A) Comprehending spoken and visual text
B) Comprehending written and visual text
C) Communicating in response to spoken and/or written and/or visual text
D) Using language in spoken and/or written form
