What This Standard Means

What Students Need to Do

Students read or listen to a short text about a person, event, or place. They find the words that answer questions such as who, what, where, when, why, and how.

What Mastery Looks Like

A student can answer a question by pointing to the words in the text that give the answer. If the text does not say, they say so instead of guessing.

Common Misconceptions

Students may answer from what they already know instead of checking the text. They may mix up where and when or guess a reason the text never gives.

How to Assess It

Post: 'On Friday, Maya planted a tree at school to make shade.' Ask, 'When did Maya plant the tree, and why?' Have students underline the words that give each answer.

Ways to Teach It

  1. Give pairs the sentence 'On Tuesday, Ana visited the library' and two crayons; have them underline when and where in different colors.

  2. Read 'Our class collected cans to help the food pantry' and ask, 'Why did they collect cans? Which words tell you?'

  3. Play question-card match with 'On Friday, Mia visited the library': students match who, when, and where cards to words in the sentence.

  4. Post a library flyer reading 'Story time: Saturday at 10, Main Library'; students circle when and where, then tell a partner.
