About this resource
Description
Telling a fact from an opinion is one of the most useful reading skills a child can learn. A fact can be checked and proven true, while an opinion tells how someone thinks or feels. This Write Fact Opinion Worksheet gives students practice spotting the difference and then writing their own examples of each.
Students first read eight short sentences about drums, rainy days, pets, lemons, snow, spiders and lunch, and fill in the bubble that shows whether each one is a fact or an opinion. Next they look at a picture of a basket of red and green apples, write one fact and one opinion about it, and explain how they know their opinion is not a fact. Print it for class work, a reading center, homework or a quick check after a lesson.
What’s Included
- Eight fact or opinion sentences with fill-in-the-bubble answers
- A picture prompt for writing one fact and one opinion
- A short written explanation question
- An answer key with the correct bubbles and sample written answers
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
- It gives students a simple test for every sentence: can it be proven, or is it how someone feels?
- Writing their own fact and opinion moves children from recognizing the skill to using it.
- The explanation question builds the habit of backing up an answer with a reason.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Read the eight sentences aloud and have children point to the word that makes each opinion an opinion, such as best, boring or should. Set out a real bowl of fruit and let students say facts and opinions about it before they write. Share a few written opinions with the class and vote on whether everyone agrees, which shows why an opinion can never be proven. This 3rd grade fact and opinion worksheet also works well before reading reviews, ads or letters to the editor, and the Write Fact Opinion Worksheet can be used again with a new picture for extra practice.
