What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students examine maps, charts, images, spoken accounts, and interactive displays for useful details. They check who made each source and what it leaves out. They use specific details to support a claim.
What Mastery Looks Like
- Given a World War I alliance map and a recruitment poster, a student identifies the countries shown on the map and the poster's call to enlist. They use both details to explain who took part in the war. They know the poster cannot show how many people enlisted.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may treat a recruitment poster as a neutral record rather than an attempt to persuade. They may read a chart's tallest bar without checking its label or date. They may name a detail without explaining how it supports their claim.
How to Assess It
- Show a 1914 alliance map and a British recruitment poster. Ask: “What do these sources suggest about who took part in World War I? Make one claim and cite one detail from each.”
Lesson moves
Ways to Teach It
Give pairs a printed 1914 alliance map and a British recruitment poster; have them circle two clues and write one supported claim.
Read aloud a short 1914 recruitment speech; ask, “Who is the speaker trying to persuade, and which words give that away?”
Play claim match with a World War I casualties chart; students match claims to chart bars and flag a claim the chart cannot support.
Give students a city bus map and schedule; ask which route reaches the library before 5 p.m. and have them cite both sources.
