Sentence Frames

Worksheet Description

The Evidence-Based Writing worksheet is a collection of sentence frames designed to help students articulate their reasons and the evidence supporting their arguments. It provides a variety of templates for constructing sentences that state a claim, give reasons for a belief, and present evidence. This structured approach allows students to fill in the blanks with their own content, thereby practicing how to form coherent and persuasive sentences within an argumentative context.

The worksheet is teaching students how to effectively communicate their reasoning and the supporting evidence in written arguments. By using these sentence frames, students learn how to introduce their points and evidence in a clear and structured manner. The variety of frames offered encourages students to think about different ways to present their arguments and to recognize the importance of citing sources and providing concrete examples. This activity helps to develop critical writing skills that are essential for crafting logical and substantiated arguments in academic writing.
