IDENTIFY THE STATEMENT

On the whiteboard draw two columns,
one with sentences (around ten) and
another for writing the word ‘fact’ or

‘opinion’. Students have to determine
whether ‘fact’ or ‘opinion’ is written
next to each sentence.

STATE A FACT OR AN

OPINION

Make some chits with the words ‘fact’ or
‘opinion’ written on them. Ask each stu
dent to come up to the teacher’s table, pic
k a chit and make a statement accordi

ng to the word on the chit.

TRUE OR FALSE

A sentence is displayed as fact or an

opinion. Call out students randomly, to
determine whether the sentence is true
or false with explanation.

GATHERING EVIDENCE

Give a worksheet containing sentences related to a
topic that was covered in class. Students are

instructed to verify if the sentences are fact or
opinions, by finding evidence from their textbooks.
They should write down the evidence next to each
statement. After completion, students are asked to
compare their answers with their neighbor.
