What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students notice who is telling or creating a story, who it is meant for, and what is happening around the characters. They use those clues to explain a character’s view and create a drawing or story from a chosen viewpoint.
What Mastery Looks Like
- Given a familiar picture book, a student names whose view is shown and points to a picture or word as evidence. The student can retell or draw the same event from another character’s view while keeping details consistent.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may confuse the author with the narrator or main character. They may think every character knows the same facts, or treat point of view as simply liking or disliking something.
How to Assess It
- Show two children reaching for the same toy. Say, “Choose one child. Draw and dictate what that child would tell the teacher, then name one picture clue you used.”
