after school speech part 4

Last Tuesday, SJ had his bi-weekly speech therapy session.  His therapist spent most of the session working on the difference between fact and opinion.  She told him that a fact is a sentence that is true about something and an opinion is a sentence about something that a person thinks.  

She used different cards to show him how opinion sentences can begin.  They were the following phrases:  I believe, in my opinion, my favorite, I like, I think the best, etc.  

She also showed him cards that were examples of how opinion questions can begin.  These were a few of the example questions:  How do you feel about..?, What do you think about...?, Do you believe that...?, etc.

She had him complete a opinion survey on a topic of his choice.  He choose video games (big surprise).  Here are his answers.

My favorite game is Mario Cart.
I like games because they are fun.
I don't like that games take so long to win.
I think the best game is Mario Cart.
I feel that games are awesome.
I think that games are outstanding.
I don't think that games are stupid.
In my opinion, games are amazing.
I can't stand losing.
One of the worst things about games are the tutorials.
