What This Cluster Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students notice their own reading and writing interests, habits, strengths, and goals. They choose useful books, models, strategies, people, and classroom tools to help them grow and participate.
What Mastery Looks Like
- Students can explain what they enjoy reading and writing, then choose materials that fit their interests or goals. They independently use resources such as picture clues, bookmarks, word walls, peer feedback, or mentor texts.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may think strong readers only choose difficult books or that strong writers never need help. They may also name a tool, such as rereading or a word wall, without explaining how it helps.
How to Assess It
- Use an exit ticket: “Today I acted like a reader or writer when I ____. The tool or resource that helped me was ____ because ____.”
