Author's Claim Lessons

Explore Author's Claim Lessons

Author's claim presentations available through Wayground (formerly Quizizz) provide structured instruction to help students develop critical reading comprehension skills by learning to identify, analyze, and evaluate the central arguments writers make in their texts. These educational resources use concept explanation and visual learning approaches to teach students how to distinguish between an author's main claim and supporting evidence, recognize persuasive techniques, and assess the credibility and logic of presented arguments. Through systematic exposure to various text types and argument structures, students build the analytical thinking skills necessary to become discerning readers who can navigate complex informational and persuasive writing with confidence and understanding. Wayground supports teachers with millions of teacher-created presentation resources that can be easily discovered through robust search and filtering capabilities, allowing educators to find materials perfectly aligned with their curriculum standards and student needs. The platform's differentiation and customization tools enable teachers to modify presentations for diverse learning levels, while flexible digital delivery formats make it simple to integrate these resources into whole-class instruction, small group work, or independent study sessions. These comprehensive capabilities support teachers in planning effective lessons, providing targeted remediation for struggling readers, offering enrichment opportunities for advanced students, and ensuring consistent skill reinforcement across multiple learning contexts to help all students master the complex process of identifying and evaluating author's claims.
