Help students move from vague chart comments to evidence-based claims.

A one-page classroom tool with three sentence frames for observation, comparison, and cautious claims.

Classroom use

Use it as a small routine inside the chart work you already teach.

  • give students language for chart observations
  • move students from single values to comparisons
  • support cautious claims with evidence
  • make reasoning easier to hear and revise
  • build repeatable evidence habits
