MYP Criterion B and Criterion D Examples and Quizzes
by MsVisualizerThese quizzes and slideshows with good and bad examples are how I introduce the expectations of MYP to my 6th graders (MYP year 1).
This bundle includes a Criterion B quiz, Criterion D quiz and several examples and non examples of the following skills
- Writing a general rule
- Verifying your rule with examples
- Explaining the accuracy of your answer
- Determining if your answer makes sense in the context of the problem
After teaching MYP year 1 for 3 years, these are the MYP skills that my students have struggled with the most.
MYP Criterion B Math Examples for Students
By MsVisualizer
This is a google slideshow that I use to help students (and their parents) understand my expectations on an MYP Criterion B Assessment.
I use multiple specific examples to show what it means to
- Write a general rule
- Verify that the rule works for multiple examples
After teaching 6th grade math in a few years, I've learned that students often don't know what it means to "write a rule" or how to verify if their rule is correct with well chosen examples. This is designed to help clarify the expectations that they will see throughout MYP.
I do this after our first Criterion B quiz. All examples are from the quiz.
MYP Criterion D Math Examples for Students
By MsVisualizer
This is a google slideshow that I use to help students (and their parents) understand my expectations on an MYP Criterion D Assessment.
I use multiple specific examples to show what it means to
- Describe vs. Explain the level of accuracy
- Determine if the answer makes sense in the context
After teaching 6th grade math in a few years, I've learned that students often don't know what it means to "explain the accuracy" of their answer or to determine if it makes sense in the context of the problem. This is designed to help clarify the expectations that they will see throughout MYP.

Editable MYP Math Criterion D Ratios and Rates Quiz (2 versions)
By MsVisualizer
I use this quiz as a first introduction to a Criterion D assessment. Prior to this we have class discussions about what it means to explain the accuracy and determine whether an answer makes sense in the context.
When I give the quizzes back, I go through these examples to help students better understand what it means to explain the accuracy and determine whether an answer makes sense in the context.
Includes bonus challenge question.
MYP Criterion B Factors, Properties of Operations Quiz
By MsVisualizer
I use this quiz in the beginning of the year to introduce the idea of writing and testing conjectures/general rules.
The next class, I go through these examples to help students better understand the difference between a specific statement and a general rule.
