Argument writing is a key area of focus in the CCSS. The CCSS routinely expects students to draw
evidence from texts to produce clear and coherent writing that informs,
explains, or makes an argument in various written forms (notes, summaries,
short responses or formal essays). I have created a foldable on TPT that is a great tool for instruction in the writing of a CEI paragraph:
Claim, Evidence, Interpretation. It's
also a great follow-up tool for student's to practice the skill of
argumentation. When you make copies of
the foldable, copy the foldable pattern on the front and lined paper on the
back. I have the students cut one “door”
at a time. After students complete their
response under each door, they just need to open all the doors to see a
completed Claim, Evidence, Interpretation paragraph.
