CCSS Reading Anchor Standard 1 Graphic Organizer

This set of two graphic organizers will help your students identify text-specific evidence that supports a claim or opinion they have about that text. It also provides them space to explain why that evidence best supports their claim. The one-page sheet is for students who might use shorter pieces of text evidence, while the two page sheet allows them space for longer quotations. I have used this successfully with 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students, but imagine it would work well in upper elementary grades as well.
