What This Standard Means

What Students Need to Do

Students notice how pictures, words, labels, color, and sound shape a message. They create simple signs, stories, or invitations that combine forms and fit a clear audience and purpose.

What Mastery Looks Like

A student can point to a picture, label, color, or sound and explain how it helps the audience. The student creates a clear piece with connected words and images, then names its audience and purpose.

Common Misconceptions

Students may treat pictures, color, or sound as decoration rather than parts of the message. They may add unrelated images or say the audience is everyone.

How to Assess It

Ask students to make a handwashing sign for a new kindergartner using a picture, words, and one attention-getting feature. Have them explain one design choice.

Ways to Teach It

  1. Give pairs paper, markers, and picture cards to create a classroom safety sign with a symbol, label, and bold color.

  2. Compare two party invitations and ask, "Which one would help a kindergartner know what to do, and why?"

  3. Play Feature Match by pairing cards showing labels, titles, speech bubbles, or sound with the job each feature does.

  4. Study a school lunch menu, then add simple icons and labels that help kindergartners choose a meal.
