Finding the Speaker's Opinion

What are we learning today?

You will find out what a speaker thinks in a simple conversation.

Explanation

• An opinion shows what a person thinks or feels.
• Listen for adjectives like cool and amazing.
• Listen for short reactions like Wow! (surprise) and Cool.
• Listen to the answer. A short answer can show a person is not excited.

Examples

1. "Oh, it was so cool!" David likes his weekend.
2. "It was amazing." This is a positive opinion.
3. "Homework! It was boring." This is a negative opinion.

Remember!

• Good words like cool and amazing show a positive opinion.
• Adjectives and exclamations help you find an opinion.

Check yourself

1. Is "amazing" positive or negative?
2. Which word shows surprise: Wow! or Homework?
