is a fact or an opinion by writing 'Fact' or
'Opinion' at the end of each statement.
Please do this in your notebook.

1. The fastest land-dwelling creature is

C. Abstraction Provide Evidence to support Opinion/

fact

Opinion –expresses one’s ideas, feelings,

beliefs, likes or dislikes. When you
express your opinion, you state how you
feel and think about something. You
decide to believe or not the opinion of
others.

The following pointers are used in

expressing opinions:

1. When stating an opinion, start with

these expressions.

I think… My attitude
towards that is…
 I feel that… I guess…
Perhaps… I suppose…
Maybe… I believe…
As far as I’m Personally
concerned… speaking…
To my mind… Probably…

2. When expressing general opinion,

start the statements by using the
following expressions:

It is thought that…
People say that…
It is generally accepted that…

3. We used a feeling-based verb in

expressing our opinion like
-believe -best/worst
-think -always/never
-seem -might
feel -should

Here are some examples of opinions.

Dogs are the best pets among animals.

Reason/Evidence: This statement is an opinion

because not all people believe dogs as the
best pets. Some believe that cats, birds, and
other animals are the best.

I believe that the smartphone is now a

necessity, not anymore, a luxury.

Reason/Evidence: some people believe that a

smartphone is necessary because they can
use it in their everyday lives like in studies,
business, etc. but for some, it is only a luxury.

I would say that an intelligent child always

succeeds.

Reason/Evidence: not all intelligent children

succeed. Some children are not intelligent,
but they succeed in life. For some people,
intelligence is not the basis for an individual’s
success in life. It is one’s attitude towards life
that counts.

Fact - A fact is an idea that can be verified

with evidence. It is something that is true
and tells what happened. We can’t change
 the fact. There is no room for difference in
the fact. A fact is universal in character. Here
are the clues to prove whether the statement
is a fact or not.

Examples:
- God has created everything that is
present in this world.
- This is a factual statement because we
can prove it is true by reading
documents, particularly the bible
regarding this matter.

-The sun is the center of the system.

It is a fact. We can prove it through.

scientific data and other references.

Australia is the smallest continent in

the world.

By using a world atlas or other

references we verify that Australia is
the smallest continent in the world
with a land area of 3,300,000 sq.
miles.

D. Applicatiion Now, let’s apply those concepts you have (The students will perform the

divided into two groups. We are going to
have a debate about this topic:

McDonald’s food is better than

Jollibee’s.

Each group must take a stand. You will

have to provide facts and opinions,
clearly distinguish between them, and
support your arguments with evidence.

(The teacher will evaluate students'

answers based on the evidence
 provided.)

Very good, class! Now, let’s summarize

what we have learned today.

Who can summarize the concepts we

The concept of supporting facts
have discussed today?
and opinions using evidence
involves distinguishing between
statements that can be
objectively proven (facts) and
those that reflect personal
beliefs or preferences (opinions)

To support facts, one relies on

Very good! What else? verifiable information, data, or
research. In contrast, opinions
are reinforced by presenting
reasons, experiences, or
personal perspectives.
