My Spanish Ab Initio Portfolio contains 333 questions and answer options that cover all 20 topics of the Ab Initio syllabus. It helps students understand all the questions that can be asked about the 20 topics and prepare and practise their personal responses to these questions. The various answer tables are presented in a way that allows the students to pick and choose the parts of the answers that best reflect their own situation. The Portfolio also encourages the students to study, practice and review the relevant vocabulary and grammar prior to answering the questions, thus providing a great revision tool in preparation for the different assessment components. The Portfolio lends itself to a continuous development and revision of all four language acquisition skills : reading, writing, listening and speaking.

Teachers of Language B will agree that in the Language B course, not every student starts from the same point in their language development. You will have students with different language acquisition backgrounds and with different levels of proficiency entering your classroom on the first day of their IB Diploma program. The Language B resources that we have on offer are meant to help all students get up to par as fast as possible at the START of the course (in the first few months). These resources are very similar to the ones that are on offer for the Ab Initio courses. In fact, the learning outcomes at the end of the Ab Initio course are identical to the expected starting point of students in the Language B course.
