All kids need to know how to interpret what they read -- it is a fact, or is it someone's opinion? This skill is especially important as they reach the age of accessing information from the internet.***** 5 Stars - I like how this app teaches kids how to look for the clue words that can identify a fact or opinion. No other app I've used has done that. ***** 5 Stars - Lots of practice. My son loves the Reward Center. Even I did a few levels so I could earn some coins to play!'Fact or Opinion' is targeted to children in Grades 2-5.
