What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students pick useful details from sources and decide what a specific group needs to know. They make a display, handout, or short talk that makes a claim and explains how the evidence supports it.
What Mastery Looks Like
- A student can make a three-panel Dust Bowl display for fifth graders with an accurate claim and two relevant source details. They name their sources and explain each detail in words fifth graders can follow.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may list facts without explaining what those facts show. They may treat a dramatic photo as proof of a claim it cannot support, or use the same wording for fifth graders and adults.
How to Assess It
- Give students a Dust Bowl photo and a short textbook paragraph. Ask for a three-sentence display label for fifth graders with one claim, a detail from each source, and source names.
Lesson moves
Ways to Teach It
Pairs use a Dust Bowl photo, a map, and two textbook excerpts to make a three-panel display for fifth graders.
Ask students to write which Dust Bowl detail fifth graders need first and which source backs their choice.
Put three Dust Bowl claims and three source snippets on cards; students match claims to evidence and fix one unsupported claim.
Have students draft a 60-word caption for a local library's Dust Bowl display, using a photo and one textbook excerpt.
