Science Notebook: Share a Claim and Evidence

Name:                              
Date:              

Today I am practising: making a simple claim supported by an observation

1

Look at two measured objects. Say which is longer.

2

Finish: I claim ___ is longer.

3

Draw or write the evidence that supports your claim.

4

Point to the matching measurement or observation.

5

Ask an adult to name one piece of your evidence.

6

Add because to explain the connection.

Grown-up guide
  1. Offer the sentence frame orally before asking the child to write it.
  2. Require one visible piece of evidence, not a long explanation.
  3. Ask a gentle follow-up: 'Where can I see that on your page?'
