fact and opinion By jan smith

I am a Michigan Football fan and I live in Ohio. I turn this into a lesson. With the premise set that a fact can be proven true or false and an opinion is what someone feels.
I give them cards with "opinion" [written] on one side and "fact" on the other- I make a statement and they make a choice.

Example:
Michigan is better in football than Ohio ever thought of being. (opinion) Michigan has gone to the Rosebowl more than Ohio, (fact) they will really have to think these through and we laugh the entire lesson- boys love it especially!
