IB Middle Years Programme (MYP) Teaching Resources

Editable units for MYP years 1–5 that fit the way you already plan: a statement of inquiry at the top, criterion-linked tasks underneath, and enough differentiated practice to carry a fortnight of lessons.

Why teachers use these

Why MYP teachers use these

Unit planning in the MYP is slow work. By the time you have settled a key concept, two related concepts, a global context and a statement of inquiry that actually says something, the fortnight has gone and you still have no student-facing material. These downloads fill that gap. You keep authorship of the planner and the criterion descriptors; the resource supplies the practice, the slides and the answer keys, in files you can rewrite in the command terms your subject group uses.

What's covered

What one purchase gives you

A whole teaching sequence rather than an isolated task sheet.

  • Four levels of differentiated practice
  • Slide deck you can rewrite
  • Answer keys for every task
  • Lesson plan with suggested timings
  • Print and digital versions

Make it work for everyone

Differentiation and criterion evidence

The four levels let you set the same task at different demands without writing four worksheets, which matters when a year 3 class holds beginners and near-fluent speakers of the language of instruction. Mark the top level against your criterion descriptors and keep it as evidence; use the lower levels as formative practice that never reaches a report.

Good to know

Frequently asked questions

Are these IB-authorised resources?

No. Teach Lessons has no connection to the International Baccalaureate Organization, and nothing here is authorised, endorsed or reviewed by the IB. The material is written to the concepts and skills MYP subject groups cover, so it maps onto units you have already planned. Command terms and criterion wording remain yours to set.

Do tasks arrive with criteria A–D rubrics attached?

Not as published IB rubrics, and you should be wary of anything that claims otherwise. What you get is a task and a full answer key. Because the files are editable, most teachers paste their own criterion strands and level descriptors onto the last page of the worksheet before printing it for an assessed task.

Can I use these for an interdisciplinary unit?

Yes, and they suit it well. Pick one unit from sciences and one from individuals and societies, strip the slides back to the sections you need, and build the interdisciplinary task around the shared concept. Editable files make that a cut-and-paste job rather than a rewrite from nothing.

Will they suit year 5 classes heading into eAssessment?

Partly. Year 5 students need extended questions in unfamiliar contexts, and these units are stronger at building the underlying skill than at replicating an on-screen examination. Use the practice and answer keys through the unit, then write the final task yourself in the format your school's candidates will meet.
