Reading: Fact or Opinion

This week for literacy in Reading we have been working on learning about Facts and Opinion and the meaning of both words. Our fact or opinion was based on Teachers Striking in New Zealand we answered some question and had to figure out if it was a fact or opinion. I learned that definition of "Fact" is something that is always true, Facts can be proven we can find facts by doing research. The definition of "Opinion" is what you think or feel it can not be proven though.

Here's is a video that was part of our task, me and my buddy Trinity created...
