7L1/8L2Unit 1 Assessment Task
MYP
Area of interaction focus
Significant concept(s)
Which area of interaction will be our focus?
Why have we chosen this?
What are the big ideas? What do we want our
students to retain for years into the future?
Human Ingenuity
Language is a foundation for everyday
life, human interaction and general
learning.
 The creation and use of language
as a means of communicating.
 Exploring grammatical patterns as
a way of building and creating
language.
Communication with others is
exclusively dependent on some form of
language.
MYP unit question
How can we benefit from learning a foreign language?
Is learning a symbol/character-based language different to
learning an alphabet based language?
Written Assessment Task
Create a cartoon consisting of two or more people meeting each other. The
people should introduce themselves to each other. The speech
bubbles/captions should be written in both characters and pinyin.
The highest marks will be awarded to pupils who:

Communicate their meaning clearly and effectively.

Effectively use the language and sentence structures that the pupil
has learnt during this unit (and other units that are related to this piece
of work).

Effectively link together structures/sentences from different chapters
and take risks at creating new, accurate ideas from the sentences the
pupil already knows.

Include at least 15 different Chinese characters (including 我，你，他/
她，叫，什么，多，大，岁，早上好，很，好，忙，不，Numbers)
The below table should help as a guide on how to achieve the top marks (8/8):
7–8 Information is communicated clearly and effectively and the layout makes the message
of the work clear.
5–6 Although information is communicated clearly, there are some problems with some of
the more complicated sentence structures. There are good ideas but they are not always
completely accurate.
3–4 There has been some difficulty in communicating the intended information; sentences
and ideas are repeated and not always related to the task. There are some problems with
the layout.
1–2 Information is not communicated clearly and ideas used are not related to the task. The
layout makes it very difficult to read and understand.
