Mammoth Bone Pile

Due Tomorrow

(if not finished)

I will apply the writing technique claim-evidence-reasoning by writing to explain the connection between various ancient objects. I will know I am successful when my written explanation uses the given sentence starters and includes a claim, 2 pieces of evidence, and reasoning for each piece.

Warm-Up: Claim-Evidence-Reasoning

Consider the question:

Why might “peopling the earth” have taken SO LONG?

When explaining an answer to this question, which of the following would be the CLAIM, the EVIDENCE, and the REASONING?

​

1. As early humans slowly moved into each continent of the world, they encountered a number of biomes.
2. The need to adapt to different environments and develop new skills for survival made “peopling the earth” take a very long time.
3. Since each new environment would have presented different opportunities and challenges, early humans would have had to learn a lot of things “the hard way,” and becoming successful in each location would have taken a long time.

Sentence Starters

CLAIM: What do you think/know?

• “Most likely, the mammoth bones and chopper were located in the same spot because…”
• “The mammoth bones and chopper were found near each other because…”
• “In the past, the relationship between the mammoth bones and chopper was…”

EVIDENCE: How do you know that? + REASONING: How does your evidence support your claim?

• “I notice _______, which supports my thinking that ___________.”
• “In the images, I see_______, which means ____________.”
• “Since I see ______ in the images, the relationship between the two objects must be…”
• “The information provided says _________, which suggests ______________.”
