A word and its picture

Learn it simply

  • A written label should match what the picture actually shows.
  • Look at the complete word, not only its first letter.
  • Similar-looking words can name different things.

See it. Say it. Understand it.

Easy / Start here

A picture of a pear matches pear.

Moderate / Add a little

A picture of a bed does not match bag.

More detail for teachers and confident learners

A written label should match what the picture actually shows. Look at the complete word, not only its first letter. Similar-looking words can name different things. Say the label quietly, identify the object, then decide whether they match. This builds accurate recognition and avoids guessing from a picture without reading.

Start by understanding the whole message or picture. A familiar-looking word is not enough if its meaning does not fit. Read slowly, check the number of objects and then check spelling. Short answers should contain only the information requested. The adult can explain a task but should not supply the answer for the child.

Yes and no from a scene

Learn it simply

  • A statement about a scene may be correct or incorrect.
  • Check the person or object, action, number and location before choosing yes or no.
  • One wrong detail makes the whole statement incorrect.

See it. Say it. Understand it.

Easy / Start here

The bird is in the tree. Yes, if it is shown there.

Moderate / Add a little

Two boys are sleeping. No, if only one is sleeping.

More detail for teachers and confident learners

A statement about a scene may be correct or incorrect. Check the person or object, action, number and location before choosing yes or no. One wrong detail makes the whole statement incorrect. Do not use what usually happens in real life; use the evidence shown in this particular scene.

Start by understanding the whole message or picture. A familiar-looking word is not enough if its meaning does not fit. Read slowly, check the number of objects and then check spelling. Short answers should contain only the information requested. The adult can explain a task but should not supply the answer for the child.

One-word answers and clear copying

Learn it simply

  • A short answer should fit the question.
  • What asks about a thing, where asks about a place, and how many asks about a number.
  • Use the shortest complete answer allowed by the task.

See it. Say it. Understand it.

Easy / Start here

What is she eating? Rice.

Moderate / Add a little

How many ducks? Five.

More detail for teachers and confident learners

A short answer should fit the question. What asks about a thing, where asks about a place, and how many asks about a number. Use the shortest complete answer allowed by the task. When copying a word, check its letters in order and leave space between words if more than one is needed.
