Unit 2, Lesson 5: Claim Testing
Learning Target: I can explain why we use multiple methods testing claims
Class Activities:
1. Students picked up the Testing Claims worksheet and got to work on the do now at the top, which asked them to agree or disagree with several statements. We reviewed them as a class, and people had to explain whey they agreed or disagreed.
2. I showed a video clip about testing claims. Students answered questions on their worksheet as we moved through the video clip. A youtube link is at the bottom of the page. Basically, students should know that we experience claims every day, dozens of times, and with each claim, we choose to trust, ignore, or investigate it. And to decide whether or not to trust the claim or not, we use four different methods of claim testing-- we'll use these methods throughout the course.
3. I distributed a comic strip of claim testing superheroes. Students read together and answered the final two questions on their worksheet.
4. When they were done with the worksheet, they completed the exit slip, and we shared answers.
