Fact vs. Opinion Worksheet — Curriculum Goals
As students read informational or biographical texts, they’ll come across facts and opinions. This worksheet helps them decide which is which!
Once your students are finished researching a topic, they choose 10 facts and write one in each box.
Scaffolding + Extension Tips
In addition to individual student work time, use this fact vs. opinion worksheet as an in-class or homework assignment for lessons on:

Students who need more challenge can find evidence in their research texts to support their facts.
Younger students can draw pictures if they are unable to use words.
