Using and Evaluating Textual Evidence

English · Reading Comprehension · procedural

Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of what a text says explicitly and what can be inferred, distinguishing between strong and weak evidence and explaining how the evidence supports a point

What mastery looks like

  • Identify a relevant quotation to support an inference about a character's feelings
  • Explain why one piece of evidence is stronger than another for supporting a claim
  • Use embedded quotations in a written response to back up an analytical point
