Reading in IB MYP Grade 2 English Language Acquisition
Reading is part of IB MYP Grade 2 English Language Acquisition. At this developing stage (ages 12–13), learners work on building sight-word vocabulary, guided reading with picture support and reading fluency and expression.
MYP English Language Acquisition is assessed against four criteria (A: listening, B: reading, C: speaking and D: writing). Regular practice with reading builds the knowledge and skills those criteria reward.
What learners practise
- Building sight-word vocabulary
- Guided reading with picture support
- Reading fluency and expression
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 reading 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.
