The three big ideas

  • Fact — something true that can be checked: “The heart pumps blood.”
  • Opinion — what someone thinks or feels: “Yoga is the most fun.” Others might disagree.
  • Quick test — can you prove it? If yes, it is a fact. If it is a feeling or favourite, it is an opinion.

Try it. Fact or opinion? “Running makes your heart stronger.”

It can be checked and everyone agrees, so it is a fact. “Running is boring” would be an opinion.

  • Persuasive words — words chosen to convince you: amazing, must, everyone, you should, the best.
  • Reasons — good persuasion gives reasons: “Eat fruit because it gives you energy.”
  • Be a smart reader — ask: is this a real reason, or just a strong-sounding word?
  • Heading — a short title that tells the reader what a part is about: “Why We Need Sleep.”
  • Slogan — a snappy line that sticks in your head: “Move more, feel great!”
  • Make it short — the best slogans are a few words, easy to remember, often with rhyme or repeat sounds.
Common mix-up: a fact and an opinion can sit in the same sentence. “Exercise is healthy (fact) and skipping is the most fun way to do it (opinion).” Spot which part can be checked.
