Match Claim to Evidence

This worksheet provides a list of claims and a corresponding list of evidence, and students must match each claim to the piece of evidence that best supports it. The activity helps students understand how evidence strengthens an argument and how different types of support can relate to a central idea. Through the matching task, students learn to evaluate which facts, studies, or examples are most relevant. This builds essential analytical thinking skills used in reading comprehension, debate preparation, and informational writing. The worksheet reinforces logical reasoning by requiring students to pair arguments and support effectively.
