Leveraging Assessment Google Calendars: Time Management Tips for MYP Summative Success

Posted: September 6, 2024

Dear Students and Parents,

At the start of a new school year, effective time management and organization are key to succeeding in the MYP Summative Assessments. The Assessment Google Calendars serve as a valuable tool for both students and parents by providing clear and accessible schedules tailored to each year level: 

We encourage students to sync these year-level calendars with their personal Google Calendars. This integration will aid in managing responsibilities and time efficiently, offering a clear overview of upcoming assessments throughout the year. 

Our dedicated teachers will continuously provide guidance to help students break down tasks and prepare effectively for assessments. As the semester progresses, significant summative assessment tasks will be added to the calendars, ensuring students have ample time to prepare.

To establish a strong foundation for managing stress and anxiety, we recommend the following time management strategies:

  • Create a Study Schedule: Early in the year, organize a study schedule that designates specific time slots for each subject and assessment task. This structured approach can help students manage their workload efficiently and avoid last-minute cramming.
  • Prioritize Tasks: Encourage students to prioritize tasks based on deadlines and importance. By breaking larger tasks into smaller, more manageable segments, the workload becomes less overwhelming.

By implementing these time management techniques and leveraging the assessment calendars effectively, students can approach their assessments with confidence and reduce unnecessary stress throughout the year.

Wishing all students a successful and organized school year.

Warm regards

Ms. Alison Yang  | MYP Coordinator
