their opinions or beliefs.

feeling, or judgment that cannot be

Why it’s important? Opinions help

express individual perspectives, but
they need to be supported by reasons
or examples if we want others to ( The students listen to the teacher
understand or agree with them. An attentively)
opinion can be persuasive if it is
supported with facts, but on its own,
it’s simply a personal point of view.

statement “Water boils at 100°C” is a

explain why we believe something is
true. For example, if someone says,
“Summer is the best season,” they
might explain this by saying, “I love the
warm weather and the chance to go to
the beach.” Though the statement is ( The students listen to the teacher
still an opinion, the reasoning makes it attentively)
more persuasive.

Again, how can we tell if the statement

is an opinion? Anyone?

through expressing our thoughts and
feelings.

an opinion if it's our own belief and
feelings.
