Teacher's field guide

What Students Need to Do: Students show a picture or drawing and tell classmates one idea about a school helper. They use a teacher prompt if needed and speak so others can hear.
What Mastery Looks Like: A student shows a drawing and says, “The custodian keeps our school clean.” They point to a detail in the drawing and tell what it shows.
Common Misconceptions: Some children name the helper but stop before saying what the person does. Others point silently at their drawing or speak only to the teacher.
How to Assess It: Give each child a school helper picture and ask, “Show us your picture. How does this person help at school?” Offer the frame “The ___ helps by ___” if needed.

Lesson moves

Have children draw a school helper at work, then hold up the drawing and tell two classmates what the helper does.
Ask, “Which school helper would you thank today, and why?” Have children answer a partner before sharing with the group.
Play picture-pass: each child takes a school helper photo, shows it to the group, and says one job that helper does.
At lunch, ask children to watch cafeteria workers, then tell a partner one way the workers help their school.
