Self‑select and interact with grade‑appropriate texts independently for increasing periods of time.
With 1.5, Grade 1 students practice Self‑sustained reading in multiple representations and contexts.
The intent of 1.5 is to move students from guided examples to independent work with Self‑sustained reading.
Use short exit tickets and tasks where students explain decisions, show multiple representations, or justify answers—directly aligned to 1.5.
It lays groundwork for the next grade by deepening accuracy and flexibility with Self‑sustained reading, so students can tackle more complex problems later.
Students may rely on procedures without reasoning or mix key terms. Build in quick oral explanations, error analysis, and vocabulary supports tied to 1.5.
Standard 1.5 describes the essential skills and understandings for Self‑sustained reading in Grade 1. It clarifies the learning outcomes and what successful work looks like.
