Analysis and Critical Thinking in IB MYP Grade 1 English Language and Literature

Analysis and Critical Thinking is part of IB MYP Grade 1 English Language and Literature. At this foundational stage (ages 11–12), learners work on noticing simple similarities and differences and asking questions about what they observe.

MYP English Language and Literature is assessed against four criteria (A: analysing, B: organizing, C: producing text and D: using language). Regular practice with analysis and critical thinking builds the knowledge and skills those criteria reward.

What learners practise

  • Noticing simple similarities and differences
  • Asking questions about what they observe

For students

Work through the worksheets, practice questions and revision resources at your own pace. Check your answers, then redo anything that felt tricky and explain each answer in your own words.

For revision

Use these resources for homework, end-of-unit revision and catching up on anything missed in class.

For teachers

Use analysis and critical thinking activities as a starter, homework or retrieval practice, and mix free and premium resources to differentiate.

Study tip

Read a little every day and talk about what you read. Retelling a story or an argument in your own words builds comprehension and vocabulary.
