Making inferences and telling fact from opinion in Year 5 — with interactive practice.

Reading in Year 5 focuses on making inferences and telling fact from opinion.

Pupils read longer texts, make inferences, and tell the difference between a fact (which can be proven) and an opinion (a personal view). Read closely to understand both stated and implied meaning.

Remember

  • A fact can be proven; an opinion is a personal view.
  • Make inferences from what the text implies.
