Let's Simplify the IB Russian Syllabus Together:

IB Russian can seem like a lot to handle, but it doesn't have to be stressful. Whether you're taking IB Russian Language B or starting from scratch with IB Russian ab Initio, let's simplify things.

So, What's the Difference Between IB Russian Language B and IB Russian ab Initio?

IB Russian Language B is for you if you've already got some Russian under your belt. It's all about building on what you know to communicate more effectively and dive deeper into Russian culture. There are two levels:

Standard Level (SL): We'll focus on boosting your communication skills.
Higher Level (HL): We'll take it up a notch and even explore two Russian literary works.

IB Russian ab Initio is perfect if you're new to Russian. We'll start with the basics—reading, writing, listening, and speaking—to get you comfortable with everyday conversations.

What IB Themes Will We Explore in IB Russian?

The IB Russian course revolves around five main themes:

Identities: We'll chat about what makes you unique—your interests, relationships, and health.
Experiences: We'll share stories about events that shape our lives, like holidays, traditions, and fun activities.
Human Ingenuity: We'll look at how creativity and innovation impact our world, including technology, media, and the arts.
Social Organization: We'll explore how societies function, touching on education systems, communities, and social relationships.
Sharing the Planet: We'll discuss important global issues like the environment and human rights, and how we can make a positive difference.

Choosing Between SL and HL in IB Russian Language B

IB Russian Standard Level (SL): Includes 150 hours of study. We'll work on effective communication and cultural understanding.
IB Russian Higher Level (HL): Involves 240 hours. You'll aim for higher proficiency and get to study two pieces of Russian literature for deeper insights.

What Are the Assessments Like?

IB Russian Paper 1 (Writing Skills): You'll pick one writing task out of three options related to our themes. It's all about expressing your ideas clearly.
IB Russian Paper 2 (Listening and Reading Skills): You'll practice listening and reading comprehension with various texts.
IB Russian Individual Oral Assessment:

For SL: We'll have a conversation based on a picture connected to one of the themes.

For HL: We'll discuss an excerpt from one of the Russian literary works you've studied.
