Directions:Date:Read Prissy’s opinions. Then go back and circle a word or words in each
statement that signals an opinion.What’s your rush? Reread each statement before
you make a decision.- “I am a fine-looking poodle.”
- “I consider my haircut to be very attractive.”
- “I feel that I have charming manners.”
- “I do not believe in sleeping outside.”
- “In my opinion, poodles sleep in the house only.”
- “It is my judgment that I am highly intelligent.”
- “In my view, everyone should own a poodle.”
- “I think poodles are terrific canine companions.”
- “Poodles should be named the national dog.”
Now rewrite these opinions so that they state a fact—something that can be proven true or could
actually happen.- “Poodles must eat only the best dog food.”
