Considere juntar las expectativas 4.9.E.i y 4.9.E.ii y evaluarlas juntas. Con la expectativa 4.9.E.i, los estudiantes explican cómo usa los hechos el autor para establecer un argumento. Pídales a los estudiantes que trabajen en parejas para leer un texto en el cual alguien está discutiendo un asunto y determinen la postura que sostiene el texto. Una vez que los estudiantes hayan establecido claramente la postura, pídales que lean nuevamente el texto y que identifiquen cómo ha usado el autor los hechos para apoyar y rechazar el argumento.


Further Explanation

Esta expectativa estudiantil requiere que los estudiantes reconozcan los hechos usados por el autor para apoyar un argumento. Los estudiantes deben reconocer las distintas posiciones presentes en un texto para poder explicar cómo usa el autor la evidencia para apoyar un argumento.

a text written to demonstrate to an audience that a certain position or idea is valid and that others are not The writer appeals to reason, develops, defends, or debates the topic, connecting a series of statements in an orderly way so they lead to a logical conclusion.
a detail or idea that can be shown and verified as true, to exist, or to have happened; a statement that can be proven with data, observations, and reliable sources
Students are expected to have a clear idea of the particular attributes of argumentative texts. For example, students should know that argumentative texts have unique characteristics such as a claim, an intended audience, and the use of facts in support or refutation of an argument. Students should also recognize structures, such the introduction, claim, facts, arguments, counterarguments, and conclusion, of argumentative text that impact how an argumentative essay is organized. Each one of these structures has a specific function in an argumentative text that students should identify and explain.
Arguments are presented through reasoning and must be supported by facts, or details that can be verified as true. When students recognize how the facts an author has used connect to the argument, they are able to better understand how the author arrived at a conclusion/opinion and are, therefore, better prepared to judge whether this argument is sound. Students should recognize the different positions presented in a text about a certain topic or issue to justify how the author uses evidence to support or refute arguments.
