What This Standard Means

What Students Need to Do

Students analyze how writers and designers combine words, images, sound, layout, and other features. They create multimodal texts that fit a clear audience and purpose.

What Mastery Looks Like

Students can explain how words, images, layout, sound, and genre choices shape a reader’s response. They can create a clear multimodal text and justify choices based on audience and purpose.

Common Misconceptions

Students may add images, audio, or headings that repeat information without helping the audience. They may choose features they like instead of matching choices to the purpose, audience, and genre.

How to Assess It

Exit ticket: Create a two-mode announcement for a school event aimed at sixth graders. Label one craft choice and explain how it affects the audience.

Ways to Teach It

  1. Give pairs a short article, photos, captions, and sticky notes to build a one-page infographic for sixth-grade readers.

  2. Ask students to compare two event posters and write which one better reaches families, citing two design or language choices.

  3. Play Audience Switch: teams revise the same message for students, parents, or teachers, then classmates guess the target audience.

  4. Have students create a flyer or video storyboard encouraging classmates to reduce cafeteria waste, using facts, images, and a clear call to action.
