What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students read first grade stories and poems with prompts, modeling, or partner support. They work through unfamiliar words, read in meaningful phrases, and talk about what the text means.
What Mastery Looks Like
- Students read first grade stories and poems with teacher help when needed. They use print, pictures, rereading, and questions to work through hard parts and explain the basic meaning.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may guess unfamiliar words from pictures without checking the letters. They may read each word correctly but miss the main events, or treat each poetry line as a complete sentence.
How to Assess It
- Give students a short first grade story or poem. Ask them to read one section aloud, then tell what happened or what the poem describes.

Ways to Teach It
After a shared reading, students arrange illustrated sentence strips to show the order of events and reread the completed story.
Ask students to write or tell which part of a story or poem helped them picture the scene most clearly.
Play Partner Pause, where readers stop at marked points to decode one word, reread the sentence, and summarize it.
Read a simple poem about weather, then compare its details with the weather students observe outside the classroom window.],
