FACT VS OPINION

We may think we truly know whether what we read, hear, and/or see is either a fact or an opinion, but we
must ALWAYS be diligent and mindful when attempting to discern facts from opinions. “Too many
people have full opinions, with half the facts.” – Tony A. Gaskins Jr.

INSTRUCTIONS: In the table below, write down FIVE facts and FIVE opinions, then give your
reason(s) for each. Use the articles given to search for and select your facts & opinions. Please denote
