What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students consider individual differences when communicating. They adjust pace, wording, turn-taking, or supports so others can participate and understand.
What Mastery Looks Like
- The student notices a communication need and responds respectfully. An adjustment helps without making assumptions or excluding the person.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may speak for someone else without asking. They may think fairness always means identical communication.
How to Assess It
- Give a partner scenario with different communication needs. Ask students to demonstrate two respectful adjustments and explain them.
