What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students combine spoken, written, visual, audio, or digital elements in one presentation. They choose forms such as speeches, stories, reports, or infographics based on the goal and audience.
What Mastery Looks Like
- Students create a focused presentation in which speech, writing, visuals, or audio work together. They can explain why each choice fits the purpose and audience.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may add images, audio, or video simply to make a presentation look busy. They may repeat the same information in every mode or choose a genre that does not suit the audience.
How to Assess It
- Create one slide persuading ninth graders to limit phone use while studying. Include a headline, one useful image or chart, and a 30-second spoken script.

Ways to Teach It
Give pairs an audience card, claim, chart, and image; have them build a one-minute pitch using only the materials that fit.
Ask students to compare a podcast opening and infographic on the same issue, then write which audience each version serves best.
Run a mode-match relay: teams draw purpose and audience cards, then select three format cards and defend their combination.
Have students redesign a school club announcement for parents and ninth graders, changing the script, visuals, and delivery for each group.
