Description
How many times have you witnessed a student take every word in an informational text as proven fact? Students are frequently shocked to learn that not everything in a nonfiction text is true, and that authors might include opinions, beliefs, and feelings (and they might be false!). Students must be equipped with the critical thinking skills necessary to evaluate claims and read with a skeptical eye. With 3 differentiated levels for each of my 10 passages written specifically to practice evaluating claims, your students will have the tools to seek truth and make informed decisions regarding the author’s claim in no time.
