Description
Students will first find out what a claim is, then read an article and infographic about the current debate of 12 month school years! Kids explore the topic and hear first-hand about year round school.
This pack explores this topic, while asking students to make their own determination on the topic based on the evidence provided.
- Students will then use the graphic organizer provided to write down notes and plan their essay stating their own claim.
- Students will then begin to plan a letter where they will take a stand, making their own claim using specific details from the texts they read.
- This activity allows students to read articles, while practicing using text details to support their claim, a common core writing standard.
Thanks for looking!
