Final
Even if you have a B+ for the semester, if you completely bomb the final today, you could fail for the semester. Finals are serious business. Take it seriously, it could make the difference of a letter grade for the semester, and it could make the difference between passing or not!
Your choice:
multiple choice (a through e) scantron test, built from the questions you and your peers submitted.
or
IB MYP Poster Project- rubric available
Multiple Choice Scantron
Hopefully you are prepared. Hopefully you took my advice and spoke with your peers regarding questions that they submitted for the test. If you are taking the test, you should not be using the computer. Turn it off if you decide to take the test. Best of luck!
About the poster: Read everything below
Use the rubric, use the rubric, use the rubric! It will be graded based on the rubric. Use it to make a good score; the right side of the rubric will gain you a good score, those on the left will earn you a poor/failing grade. You will turn in the poster on the flash drive that your instructor has. The file name for your poster must be your first and last name, or you will have a zero.
Challenge: Create a poster to depict a concept of the Middle Years Programme. These posters will be used in 2011-2012 as classroom references. They will be used to facilitate awareness and greater use of terminology related to programme standards. The document handed out (on the reverse side of the rubric) has three different categories, each with multiple concepts. Choose ONE of these concepts to focus on. Don't assume you know what the concept means in IB, do a little research and make sure your poster is accurate!

You have the whole internet at your fingertips (well, almost). You also have very powerful software on these machines. Make use of it, create something impressive :) There are lots of things we have talked about this year, be creative. You're not limited to only whats been directly taught either, you're welcome to do a bit of your own research if you'd like.
