What this is

A secure Year 3 response, annotated so you can see which success criterion each part meets. It is also the answer key. Key answers: © and the SAMPLE watermark both mean it belongs to someone; the watermark is on Picture C; Yes: A and F, only if they say yes: B and D, No: C and E. Steps 3 to 5 are the literacy evidence.

Step 1: spot the signs

(a) ©

(b) ©: it belongs to someone ☑. SAMPLE across a picture: it belongs to someone ☑.

(c) Picture C.

Both signs mean the picture belongs to someone, even when it is easy to find online. Evidences criterion 1.

Step 2: sort the pictures

Yes, use it and give creditOnly if they say yesNo, do not use it
A (Cai made it) and F (the Art Club says we may share it if we say who made it)D (we can ask Mali) and B (it has ©, so a grown-up would have to ask the photographer)C (watermark, it is only a sample) and E (we do not know who made it, so we cannot ask)

Picture C goes in the box No because it has a watermark across it. That means it is a sample and the owner wants people to ask or pay first.

Picture D goes in the box Only if they say yes because Mali made it and nobody has asked her yet. It is her work.

Accept B in “No” if the pupil explains that the © means it belongs to the photographer. Accept E in “Only if they say yes” only if the pupil says they would need to find the owner first. Evidences criterion 2.

Step 3: fix the punctuation

  1. This painting of Dinefwr Castle is by Cai.
  2. Mali drew a red kite flying over the River Tywi.
  3. Did you make this picture?
  4. Don’t copy a picture without asking.
  5. Thank you for letting us share it! (a full stop is also correct)

Capital letters for the start of each sentence and for names of people and places (Dinefwr Castle, Cai, Mali, River Tywi). A question mark for the question and an apostrophe where the letter o is missing in don’t. Evidences criterion 4.

Step 4: ask Mali

Hello Mali,

We are making a gallery of our town for the school website. Can we put your red kite drawing in it? I’ll write your name under it so everyone knows you drew it. It’s fine if you say no.

Thank you!

From Twm

Polite, says what the picture will be used for, asks a real question with a question mark, and uses two apostrophes correctly. Telling Mali she can say no shows respect for her work. Evidences criteria 2 and 4.

Step 5: credit labels

Picture A: Dinefwr Castle, painted by Cai in Class 3.

Picture F: The town clock collage, made by the Year 6 Art Club.

Our gallery has pictures of the castle, the bridge, the red kite and the town clock.

Each label names the maker and ends with a full stop. The list uses commas between items and and before the last one, with no comma before and. Evidences criteria 3 and 4.

Step 6: why give credit?

We say who made a picture because it is their work and it is kind to show respect for the person who worked hard on it.

Links credit to respect and fairness. Evidences criterion 5.
