Worksheet for sorting sentences into facts and opinions.

Let’s go step by step to sort each sentence into either Facts or Opinions.

First, remember:
- A fact is something that can be proven true or false. It’s based on evidence or observation.
- An opinion is what someone thinks or feels. It can’t be proven right or wrong — it’s personal.

Now let’s look at each sentence:

1. “Dogs have four legs.”
→ This is mostly true for most dogs. Some may lose a leg, but generally, dogs are born with four legs. We can check this by observing dogs. So → Fact

2. “Cats are the best.”
→ “Best” is subjective. What one person loves, another might not. There’s no proof cats are better than other animals. So → Opinion

3. “The sun is hot.”
→ We can measure the sun’s temperature. Scientists know it’s extremely hot. So → Fact

4. “The sky is pretty.”
→ “Pretty” is how someone feels about the sky. Not everyone agrees. So → Opinion

5. “The man is nice.”
→ “Nice” depends on how someone behaves and how others feel about them. One person might think he’s nice, another might not. So → Opinion

6. “The girl is five.”
→ Age can be checked (like with a birth certificate). If she really is five years old, then it’s true. So → Fact

Now let’s put them in the correct groups:

FACTS:
- Dogs have four legs.
- The sun is hot.
- The girl is five.

OPINIONS:
- Cats are the best.
- The sky is pretty.
- The man is nice.

Final Answer:
FACTS: Dogs have four legs., The sun is hot., The girl is five.
OPINIONS: Cats are the best., The sky is pretty., The man is nice.
