Reading Skills Activities | Reading Comprehension | Fact & Opinion
Improve Overall Reading Comprehension with Targeted Specific Skill Practice!
Focusing on one comprehension skill at a time gives students the opportunity to master that skill and improve their general reading and comprehension skills.
Fact & Opinion: Being able to tell a fact from an opinion is an important reading skill to master. It allows the reader to make a sound judgment about the information presented in a story. To introduce this skill, explain the difference between a fact and an opinion. Fact: a fact is something that is true about a subject. It can be tested and proven. Opinion: an opinion is what someone thinks or feels about a subject.
Skill Specific Activities
There are 15 high-interest, short stories in this selection that include a variety of fiction and non-fiction topics. The follow-up questions encourage students to answer the following questions: Is this a true statement? Can this statement be proven? Does this statement tell a thought or a feeling? Is this one person’s idea?
Each story is numbered instead of having a title. The last question for each story asks the students to give the story a title. This important activity helps to determine the student’s level of understanding the story’s main idea.
Visual Lesson
Each story has an engaging illustration designed to bring the story to life and help capture the interest of reluctant readers. To help sharpen inference skills, students can be asked to use the illustration to predict what the story is about.
Teaching Opportunities
These targeted activities are great for one-on-one intervention, small groups of students at multiple skill levels or whole class participation. Activities can be used for remediation, review, and transition classes.
