Where do you think you’re going, mortal?! You won’t be worthy of the Claim Gem until you get all my questions correct. Do you dare to try? Bet you can't...
What is a claim, and how does it differ from evidence in an argument?
Claim and evidence are often the same thing, and can be substituted for one another.
Claims are what you are arguing for, and evidence is what proves your argument is correct.
How can a well-structured claim influence the overall argument presented in a piece of writing?
A well-structured claim has no influence. Only Evidence matters.
A well-structured claim can make an argument stronger.
How can context clues in a text help you identify the claim the author is making?
Context clues that indicate opinion can reveal the author's claim and purpose.
Context clues aren't useful for finding the claim or author's purpose.
Why is it important to differentiate between a claim and an opinion when constructing an argument?
Both claims and opinions are based in facts and can often be the same, or used in the same way.
A claim is can be supported with evidence, while an opinion is not based on facts.
Why is it essential for a claim to be specific?
Specific claims focus the argument on a particular issue, allowing for clearer evidence to be presented.
Specific claims are actually not important and make have no effect on the work.
