What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students use information from short texts, pictures, signs, or conversations to understand a problem or choice. They create a spoken or written message that recommends a solution or action.
What Mastery Looks Like
- Students identify the problem or choice described in one or more short texts. They create a clear message that suggests an action and supports it with a relevant detail.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may state an opinion without giving a reason from the text. They may name the problem but offer no workable solution, or write without considering their audience.
How to Assess It
- Give students a short note about litter on the playground. Ask: “Write two sentences to the principal suggesting a solution and use one detail from the note.”

Play Solution Match by pairing problem cards with message cards, then revise any message that does not fit its audience.
Read the cafeteria menu and a student poll, then write the manager a note recommending one lunch choice.
