Teaching and response guide

  1. Model the target skill: identify family members and diverse family structures that care for children. Use the first task as a guided example before asking for an independent response.
  2. Check readiness first: Describe everyday family or household responsibilities respectfully.
  3. Discuss an incorrect response using this distinction: Families have different members and arrangements; a role is not restricted to one gender or family structure.

Watch for: Families have different members and arrangements; a role is not restricted to one gender or family structure.

Check the answer criteria for each task. A supported explanation may have more than one acceptable response. These activities offer evidence to discuss; completing a sheet alone does not establish mastery.
