Students unpack the essay, slide, speech, and newspaper success criteria by sorting sample excerpts into strong evidence, weak evidence, fact, opinion, and missing-perspective categories. The teacher models how to use a simple critique sentence stem chart and a color-coded checklist tied to geography, resources, and future investment claims. Students mark which criteria their own current draft already meets and which need revision next.
