Statement 1 is evidence as it presents the research findings that summer breaks lead to a decrease in student test scores. Statement 2 is a claim as it asserts that year-round school would result in increased student learning. Statement 3 is a claim as well, stating that all schools should adopt year-round schooling. In the paragraph, the best order for these statements would be: Statement 1 (evidence) first, followed by Statement 2 (claim), and then Statement 3 (claim). This order allows for the presentation of evidence to support the initial claim, followed by an additional claim advocating for the adoption of year-round schooling in all schools.
