What This Standard Means

What Students Need to Do

Students name what workers at school and in the community provide. They tell the difference between a thing someone gives or sells, like bread, and work someone does, like cutting hair.

What Mastery Looks Like

A student can say that a cafeteria worker provides lunch and a bus driver provides a ride. They can explain that lunch is a thing they receive, while a ride is work someone does for them.

Common Misconceptions

Students may call the school bus a good when asked what the driver provides. They may think a custodian provides a clean floor as an object, rather than cleaning as a service.

How to Assess It

Show pictures of a cafeteria worker serving lunch, a custodian cleaning, a baker selling bread, and a barber cutting hair. Ask students to circle the goods and tell you what work the other two people do.

Ways to Teach It

  1. Give pairs picture cards of lunch, bread, a bus ride, and a haircut to sort onto mats labeled "thing" and "work done."

  2. Ask, "What does a baker give you? What does a crossing guard do for you?" Record answers beside worker pictures.

  3. Play worker match: students pair cards for a cook, driver, baker, and barber with lunch, a ride, bread, and a haircut.

  4. Show a bakery menu and a barbershop price list; students find one food sold and one service offered.
