Teacher's field guide

What Students Need to Do: Students use pictures, spoken words, labels, print, or digital tools to share an idea. With adult help, they choose a form that fits their message and audience.
What Mastery Looks Like: A student creates a clear message through drawing, labels, dictated words, audio, or a simple digital slide. The student can name who it is for and what it communicates.
Common Misconceptions: Students may think only correctly spelled writing counts as a text. They may add pictures, labels, or recordings that do not match the main message or audience.
How to Assess It: Ask students to make a message teaching a new classmate how to wash hands, using a picture plus a label, dictated sentence, or recording.
