What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students gather a simple fact from a book, picture, video, or class observation. With teacher help, they record it through a labeled drawing, a short sentence, or spoken dictation.
What Mastery Looks Like
- After a shared read-aloud, a student can choose one accurate fact and make a matching picture, label, or dictated sentence. The student can explain the recorded fact when asked.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may record an opinion or invented detail instead of information from the source. They may draw a related picture without showing a fact, or copy words they cannot explain.
How to Assess It
- Read a short page about bees. Ask students to record one fact using a picture, words, or dictation, then explain their fact.

Ways to Teach It
Have pairs observe a classroom plant with hand lenses, then draw one feature and add a teacher-written label from their dictation.
Read one nonfiction page about penguins, then ask, "What fact should we save, and how can our drawing show it?"
Play Fact Finder: show an animal photo and read three statements, then students choose the supported fact and sketch it.
Check the day's weather report and look outside, then record one weather fact with a symbol, label, or dictated sentence.
