Teacher's field guide

What Students Need to Do: Students decide whether to speak, draw, act, label, or combine these ways to share an idea. They choose a form that fits the listener and their reason for communicating.
What Mastery Looks Like: A student can use labeled pictures to teach classmates how to wash their hands. The student can explain, “I used pictures so children can follow each step.”
Common Misconceptions: Students may choose a favorite format even when it does not fit the job. They may give too little information, confuse telling with teaching, or forget what the listener already knows.
How to Assess It: Say, “Show a new student how to line up safely.” Ask each child to speak, draw, act, or combine forms, then explain the choice.

Lesson moves

Give pairs puppets and picture cards, then have them teach a classroom routine using actions, spoken words, and one drawn sign.
Ask, “Would you explain a lost tooth the same way to a friend and a baby?” Students draw or tell why.
Play Audience Switch: students pick a purpose card and audience card, then choose whether to speak, draw, act, or combine forms.
Create welcome messages for next year’s kindergarteners using a short recording, labeled picture, or acted classroom tour.
