K-12 LEARNING OUTCOMES & BENCHMARKS
MATHEMATICS
Learning Outcomes and Benchmarks Below you will find the Learning Outcomes and Benchmarks for the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme, Middle Years Programme and Diploma Programme at ISS. This document covers the Learning Outcomes and Benchmarks that will be covered from Kindergarten to Grade 12 at ISS. It is an important document in ensuring that the students at ISS have a World Class education. An education that provides an ever deepening level of understanding of the world from when they join us to when they leave. Explanation of terms: Different curriculum use the terms Outcomes and Benchmarks in slightly different ways. At ISS we use the terms to mean: Learning Outcomes: the concepts, skills, attributes and knowledge that a student in the relevant Grade Level is expected to understand, demonstrate and apply. Learning outcomes complete the statement: students will be able to .................... Benchmarks: specific performance indicators for each grade level Benchmarks complete the statement: students will be able to show their understanding by ....................... It is important to note that a Learning Outcome is not a limitation. Through differentiated teaching teachers ensure that all students are given the maximum opportunity to reach the Learning Outcomes for their Grade Level and to extend those who are capable of surpassing the Learning Outcomes.
