Fact and Opinion

Fact vs. Opinion Fact: a true statement than can be proven by observation, statistics, or research. Opinion: a judgment or viewpoint about a person, place, event, or idea. An opinion may not really be true even though the author may want you to believe it is.

Tips for Identifying Facts Being able to distinguish a fact from an opinion is an important reading skill. Facts state information based on observations, statistics, or research.

Tips for Identifying Opinions Opinions express a personal viewpoint or belief about a person, place, event, or idea. Hint 1: Opinions contain adjectives like best, worst, favorite, dishonest, etc. Hint 2: opinions sometimes include phrases such as I feel, I think, my view, my opinion, etc.
