What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students gather meaning from words, pictures, diagrams, and ordered steps. They create a spoken, drawn, or written explanation that clearly teaches a concept or process.
What Mastery Looks Like
- A student can identify the main idea and place key facts or steps in a sensible order. The student can explain the topic with accurate words, labels, pictures, and sequence words.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may copy lines without showing what they understand. They may omit steps, put steps out of order, or treat pictures and labels as decoration rather than information.
How to Assess It
- Give students four picture cards showing how a seed sprouts. Ask them to order the cards and write three sentences using first, next, and finally.
