This two-day lesson plan aims to enhance students' reasoning and evidence evaluation skills. The first day focuses on the power of reasoning, where students learn to connect their claims to appropriate evidence through logical reasoning. They will practice constructing strong arguments, utilizing a Claim, Evidence, Reasoning (CER) framework. The second day emphasizes critical evidence evaluation, helping students to analyze the credibility of sources and select impactful data while identifying weak evidence. The plan includes practical activities, discussions, and homework assignments that reinforce the importance of these skills in real-world contexts, such as college applications, job interviews, and navigating social media information.
