What educators are saying
Description
Help your students' critical thinking and argumentative writing with this claim and reasoning continuum line display.
By putting academic language within eyesight, your students will confidently and instantly make precise claims.
You'll use this tool for everything from daily bellringers to end-of-term research papers.
Greatness is articulating a nuanced and confident position.
Gift your students the words to develop into sophisticated thinkers and writers AND fill that empty space under your whiteboard!
Student: "The author is angry." You: "How angry?"
Student: "They created change during the era." You: "How much change?"
Student: "Free speech is an important right in America." You: "How important?"
And point to your Argument Qualifier continuum line.
Instantly, your students will upgrade their emerging thinking and offer a much stronger position. They had the higher-level idea all along, they just didn't have the word. And as teachers, we sometimes forget that.
Now they will have the words thanks to this use-every-day tool.

- Print-and-go PDF of 3 different font options to fit most classroom spaces
- Editable Google Slides file with over 25 quantifier adverbs words that represent a continuum of positions
