​A Material World: What is Matter

​When answering a question, it is important to provide reasons and evidence to support your response.


Reasons and evidence help explain concepts and ideas thoroughly and clearly.

​Reasons and Evidence

Jonah is going to use multiple sources evidence to answer a question with reasons and evidence.

Jonah is going to use:

• the text A Material World: What is Matter?

• the Big Bang video, and

• the Big Bang instruction to answer this question.

​Jonah will answer the question:

• How many galaxies are in the universe?

​

The RACES strategy can help Jonah remember to include reasons and evidence when he answers questions.

When he cites evidence and explains his reasoning, Jonah is using reasons and evidence!
