Match the Evidence (PLANNING Lesson)

Match the Evidence (PLANNING Lesson)

by Ms. Jackson

​For our Lion King writing, we did a mini plan to get you warmed up. Discuss this question with your partners: "How is this plan different from the one we practiced? How is it similar?"

Multiple Choice

If your main idea is 'helping the homeless', what type of evidence should you be looking for?

• Evidence that tells us how many homeless people are in Florida.

• Evidence about singing to people in the hospital.

• Evidence about a specific way to help someone who is homeless.

• Evidence about taking small steps to meet a goal.

Multiple Choice

What happens if you have a great main idea and great evidence but you don't tell where the evidence came from.

• Nothing as long as you have a good main idea.

• It's cheating and you lose points.

• Ms. Jackson will put where you got it from for you.

​New Ways to CITE!

​"By doing so, you prompt them to fulfill their promises to voters (paragraph 3)."

​

​"By doing so, you prompt them to fulfill their promises to voters (Parven)."

​

​"By doing so, you prompt them to fulfill their promises to voters (Source 1)."

​Now, let's practice. I am going to give you a main idea from our text. You and your partner must decide which piece of evidence matches it BEST. Then you will have to find some evidence yourself.

Multiple Choice

If you want your main idea to be "different talents", choose the best evidence.

• We all have a role in making the world a better place, and kids are no exception (paragraph 1).

• Kids can partake in the many world-changing kids activities (source 1).

• Kids have diverse talents, and they can use this to help their communities (Parven).

Multiple Choice

Main idea: Create art with a meaning.

Choose the BEST evidence.

• "Listen to loved ones encountering hard times (paragraph 6).'

• "Volunteering helps kids to understand the value of giving back to the community (source 1)."

• "You can also paint a mural to pass messages of peace, conserving the environment, animal rights and many more (Parven)."
