What is an Opinion? An opinion is the way you think or feel about something. I think jump rope is fun! My favorite game is dodgeball! I like to play basketball!
What is a Claim? When you make a claim, you state an opinion, and support it with reasons or evidence. I like to play basketball because I can use cool dribbling moves to move around other players! I like dodgeball because I can jump really high, so I avoid getting out! I think jump rope is fun because my friends can jump with me!
Instructions that can be used to to teach students this Discussion Protocol
Food for Thought: Would you try eating an insect that was prepared to be eaten?
You can agree or disagree with someone else’s opinion. Because an opinion is what YOU think, it can’t really be wrong…especially if… Jumping rope is my favorite thing to do at recess because I like jumping with my friends. Dodgeball is my favorite game to play at recess because it is exciting! Basketball is my favorite game to play at recess because I want to play basketball in college.
