ACTIVATING Short Review

PRIOR
KNOWLEDGE Facts vs. Opinions

Created by Teacher Manuel Fb Account: Teacher Manuel

 Facts and opinions are two types of
statements that we encounter in everyday
life, but they are very different in nature:
1. Facts are statements that can be proven
true or false through evidence, research, or
observation. They are objective and remain
the same for everyone, regardless of
personal beliefs.
o Example: "The Earth orbits the Sun."
This is a fact because it is supported by
scientific evidence and can be verified
by anyone.
2. Opinions, on the other hand, are personal
beliefs, feelings, or thoughts that cannot be
proven true or false. Opinions are
subjective and can vary from person to
person. They often reflect individual
preferences, tastes, or judgments.
o Example: "Chocolate ice cream is the
best flavor." This is an opinion because
it is based on personal taste and
cannot be proven to be true or false.
Key Differences:
 Facts are verifiable and objective; they
can be checked against evidence.
 Opinions are subjective and personal;
they reflect individual perspectives and
are not based on proof.
Why It Matters:
Understanding the difference between facts and
opinions is essential for critical thinking. When
reading or listening to information, it's important
to ask whether the statement is a fact
(supported by evidence) or an opinion (a
personal belief). Recognizing this helps us make
more informed decisions and avoid being misled
by biased or unverified information.

KEY IDEA/STEM the statements in the cards.
Points for Discussion (Teacher’s Guide)
● A fact is a generally acceptable statement that
can be proven true based on objective evidence.
In other words, the statement is verifiable by
truthful accounts (figures, dates, statistical
reports, research findings, etc.).
● A fact is an event that happens, is happening,
or has happened.
● Facts are essential and crucial for
understanding and evaluating information from
multimodal platforms and forming informed
opinions and decisions.
● Factual statements are supported with
references and expressions like ‘according to,’

 ‘based on the study of,’ or ‘Einstein said.’
● An opinion, on the other hand, is a statement
of feelings or viewpoints about a subject that
may not be based on evidence or may not be
verifiable by truthful accounts.
● An opinion may be believed to exist or have
occurred, but the evidence may not be objective
and reliable.
● Most opinionated statements use signal
phrases like, 'I think,' 'I believe,' 'In my
opinion,' 'In my viewpoint/point of view,' 'In
my reason,' or adjectives, such as 'good,'
'better,' 'the best' unless proven. These words
and phrases represent personal feelings,
attitudes, or views.

THE KEY IDEA/STEM group selects one representative. Then, the two
student representatives stand together at the
front and quickly identify each flashing
statement as either fact or opinion by raising
their right hand. The first to raise a hand
guesses the answer; once they answer correctly,
their group earns a point. The student with the
most correct answers wins for their group and
takes control of the room. Meanwhile, each
group has the option to change representatives
during the game.
The following are sample statements that the
teacher can use.
