What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students draft, edit, and share writing in a digital document or page. They use peer comments to revise, link to supporting information, and arrange text and visuals so readers can find what they need.
What Mastery Looks Like
- A finished piece has working links with useful labels and headings or a labeled table that guides readers. Students can point to a sentence they changed after peer feedback and explain why.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may paste a URL without showing why the source matters. They may resolve a comment without revising, or add an image that does not help explain the writing.
How to Assess It
- Give students a short article about later school start times. In a shared document, have them write a three-sentence claim, link the article by title, add a heading, comment on a partner's draft, and revise one sentence after feedback.

Ways to Teach It
In pairs, turn a plain paragraph in a shared document into a page with a linked source, labeled image, and peer-suggested revision.
Show two sample drafts, one with a pasted URL and one with a linked source title; ask which helps readers check the claim and why.
Give teams a shared document with a broken link, vague heading, and unclear sentence; award points for fixing each and explaining why.
Have students make a one-page guide to a school event for families, with a linked schedule and readable headings, then share it digitally.
