Fact vs. Opinion Worksheet — Curriculum Goals

As students read informational or biographical texts, they’ll come across facts and opinions. This worksheet helps them decide which is which!  

Once your students are finished researching a topic, they choose 10 facts and write one in each box. 

Scaffolding + Extension Tips 

In addition to individual student work time, use this fact vs. opinion worksheet as an in-class or homework assignment for lessons on:

  • Biography writing
  • American History
  • Black History Month
  • Women’s History Month

Students who need more challenge can find evidence in their research texts to support their facts. 

Younger students can draw pictures if they are unable to use words.
