The document provides information about unpacking and communicating standards to students. It discusses the key elements of standards, including verbs that describe skills and nouns that indicate required knowledge. Graphic organizers and word walls are presented as tools to help students understand and organize the concepts outlined in standards. Communicating clear learning objectives to students through standards has been shown to increase achievement and motivation. The document advocates unpacking standards with students and creating concept maps or other visual representations to help students grasp the main ideas and relationships within the standards.
