Science CER Practice Bundle

Description

• READ a brief passage about a science scenario.
• ANALYZE a very simple data table.
• Make a CLAIM based on EVIDENCE for a related question.

1. As Stations: Great for getting kids moving around the room! Each set of 8 station cards (24 total cards in this bundle) has a brief description of science scenario and a data table. Students complete a Claims, Evidence, and Reasoning grid for a question related to each of the 8 data sets. Three separate station activities are included in this set.
2. As a Worksheet: Great for individual student practice! Students read a short description of a science scenario and analyze the data to complete a Claims, Evidence, and Reasoning grid for each data set. Three separate worksheets are included in this set.
3. Digitally: A Google Slides version of this activity is included. Three separate Google Slides activities are included in this set.
