Mrs. Sternhagen introduces a lesson on claims, evidence, and reasoning, using examples from various subjects like geometry, ELA, and algebra. The lesson begins with an introduction to the materials and a brief overview of the learning targets. Through examples such as a handprint activity, bean sprouting, and Pinocchio, students learn to define and connect claims, evidence, and reasoning. The lesson concludes with a preview of future lessons and a reminder to practice these concepts.
