Course Description: |
| The German HL1 and HL2 IB courses form an integrated two-year course of study that is equivalent to third- and fourth-year (respectively) college-level world language literature courses. Classes are taught entirely in the language being studied and students are expected to actively participate in classroom discussion of the literary works being read. The course is designed to help students develop literary analysis and commentary skills, and provide extensive training in the organization and writing of literary commentary. The two-year curriculum prepares students to take the IB Higher Level (HL) world language exam and satisfies the Language B requirement for the International Baccalaureate diploma. |
