How to Access and Cite

Effective oral communication looks similar at the middle school and elementary level, although the sophistication of the topics discussed will change, as will the sophistication of student communication. In addition, the 5th-grade rubric focuses on a slightly smaller set of indicators: the “affect” and “fluid speaking” indicators were removed, as those are more appropriate for older oral communicators.
