Oral Communication in IB MYP Grade 1 English Language and Literature
In IB MYP Grade 1 English Language and Literature, Oral Communication gives foundational learners (ages 11–12) the chance to practise speaking clearly in short phrases and taking turns in simple conversation.
MYP English Language and Literature is assessed against four criteria (A: analysing, B: organizing, C: producing text and D: using language). Regular practice with oral communication builds the knowledge and skills those criteria reward.
What learners practise
- Speaking clearly in short phrases
- Taking turns in simple conversation
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 oral communication activities as a starter, homework or retrieval practice, and mix free and premium resources to differentiate.
Keep a small notebook of new words, and use each one in a sentence of your own within a day or two.
