Teacher Insights

smekenseducation.com: gathering evidence (webpage)
  • Students organize facts based on the evidence from the text.

  • Identify the author’s position or the argument the author is making. It may not be directly stated, so the reader may need to figure this out by making inferences about the text.  

  • Once the claim is determined, students must distinguish evidence as either for or against the author’s claims.

Due to recursive nature of the standards, it is essential that teachers are aware of how all objectives within and between strands work together for optimal instruction.
