Teacher's field guide

What Students Need to Do: Students read a text and examine a map, chart, photo, or short video about the same topic. They use details from both to explain what is happening and what each source adds.
What Mastery Looks Like: A student can point to a specific detail in the text and one in the other source. They connect those details in one clear explanation instead of summarizing each source separately.
Common Misconceptions: Students may repeat the text and ignore the map or chart. They may read a map’s colors without checking its key, or list two facts without explaining how they fit together.
How to Assess It: Give students a short paragraph about how pavement holds heat and a map showing tree cover and surface temperatures. Ask: Why are some blocks hotter? Use one detail from each source.

Lesson moves

Give students a paragraph about pavement and a temperature map; have them mark evidence in two colors, then write one conclusion using both.
Ask: What does a tree-cover map show about hot neighborhoods that a paragraph about pavement cannot? Use a detail from each.
Give pairs paragraph cards about pavement, shade, and water and three diagrams; have them match each pair and explain one shared idea.
Sketch a schoolyard shade map and print a heat advisory; ask students where they would wait for the bus and why.
