What This Cluster Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students make choices about what they read, write, draw, or share. They use books, pictures, word walls, partners, and other tools to grow as readers and writers.
What Mastery Looks Like
- Students choose books, topics, and tools that fit their purpose. They can name themselves as readers and writers, explain their choices, and try another resource when stuck.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may think strong readers always choose hard books or read every word without help. They may think strong writers spell every word correctly on the first try or only write long pieces.
How to Assess It
- Exit ticket: Draw or name one reading tool and one writing tool you use. Tell how each tool helps you.
Lesson moves
Ways to Teach It
Set out picture books, audiobooks, pencils, word walls, and drawing paper; students choose two tools and explain how each helps.
Ask, "What kind of reader and writer are you becoming?" Students draw and label examples from their recent work.
Play Tool Match: students match task cards to resources such as a partner, picture clue, alphabet chart, or word wall.
Visit the school library, then have students choose a book and write or draw who might enjoy it and why.
