Ages are the anchor. Grade names are Ivy Waters stage labels for this framework, not a claim about any national school system.
English & Expressive Literacy
When asked about a book or article, your child does not just state an opinion. They go back into the text to locate specific sentences or quotes to support their claims.
In real life
You ask why a character failed a mission, and your child flips the page back and reads: "Right here on page 42, it says he forgot to check the map before heading north. That's exactly why he got lost."
Standards are permanent: an ID issued in this edition keeps pointing at the same standard. Cite it like this.
