Note:
● The December Exam will be very close to the MYP eAssessment Pattern and will test each criterion

do in class will diverge away from that aim.
● Everything covered in the class lectures, all tasks (Quizzes, Homeworks, Worksheets, Summatives),
the relevant book chapters are included and are up on LMS, along with the detailed solutions of all material.
