Develop and use models to represent phenomena, objects, and processes or design a prototype.
This standard clarifies expectations for Develop and use models so lesson goals, checks for understanding, and feedback stay aligned.
TEKS K.1G provides a clear foundation for continued study of Develop and use models in future grades.
Standard K.1G describes the essential skills and understandings for Develop and use models in Grade K. It clarifies the learning outcomes and what successful work looks like.
Students may rely on procedures without reasoning or mix key terms. Build in quick oral explanations, error analysis, and vocabulary supports tied to K.1G.
Start with concrete or familiar examples, connect to prior knowledge, model a clear process, and provide checks for understanding aligned to K.1G.
It lays groundwork for the next grade by deepening accuracy and flexibility with Develop and use models, so students can tackle more complex problems later.
