Young learners distinguish statements as fact or fiction. After exploring a newspaper, they determine the type of information it contains. They read editorial articles and discuss the differences between the editorial page and the front page news. In groups, they choose a section of an editorial page and look for facts and opinions. They share their information and reasoning with the class.
