Peter Pan and the Lost Boys
(ELABORATE)
In my opinion, Peter Pan is the most exciting character in all of children's literature. Maybe it’s because
he never grows up and always stays full of adventure. One night, when Peter invited Wendy, John, and
Michael to Neverland, they couldn’t wait to join him." I think this will be the greatest adventure ever!"
Wendy exclaimed; her eyes sparkling. "I believe you’ll love it here," Peter said, grinning. "There’s no
place like Neverland. “They flew through the sky, and Peter led them toward the jungle. "Perhaps we’ll
find a hidden treasure!" he said, filled with excitement. "I’m certain that you’ll never get bored here." As
they explored, Wendy noticed how carefree the Lost Boys were. "In my experience," she said, "they
seem happy here, without any worries." "Maybe it’s because they never have to grow up," Peter replied.
"I feel free in Neverland. I hope you do too." Later, when they approached Captain Hook’s ship, Peter
declared, "I’m convinced that we’ll defeat Hook. He doesn’t stand a chance against us! "Wendy looked
at him and said, "I should have known you’d be so confident. But, if I am not mistaken, he’s very
dangerous." Peter laughed and said, "Don’t worry, we’re faster than him. I take the view that we’ll
outsmart him every time." At that moment, Captain Hook appeared on the ship, and Peter led the charge.
"I cannot deny that Hook is a tough opponent," Peter said, "but we’ll win!" In my opinion, Peter's belief
in himself and his friends made everything seem possible. Together, they faced the dangers of
Neverland, but it was clear that, with Peter by their side, they could do anything.

Adding prefixes (strings of letters added to the front of a word) and suffixes
(strings of letters added to the end of a word) can change the meaning of a
root word in English. Words such as act, form and legal are among the
most common root words in English that we use in everyday
conversations. Unlike suffixes and prefixes, root words in the English
language can stand alone.
We use root words every day, even if we don't realize it! Root words are
simply words that are used (written or spoken) that do not have an
additional prefix or suffix added to the end or beginning of them. In
traditional root words, these words come from Latin and Greek words, and
typically do not stand alone as a complete word. Understanding the
meanings of common root words can help you work out the meanings of
new words as you encounter them.
Example:
submarine
review
replaced
behaved
instruct week
Guide Questions:
Answer Key:
like for example: Either sentence number one or sentence number two is a
statement, but there is only one reliable statement.
RULE No. 9
Opinions
Opinions, unlike facts, are neither true nor false. An opinion can express a
belief, attitude, value, judgment, or feeling.
Note that the final statement— “World War II was a terrible war”—strikes
many of us as factual. However, this is a statement of opinion. Yes, most
people would consider World War II terrible. However, there is always the
possibility that somebody out there holds a different opinion, as strange as
they may seem. It is very rare for a statement with a value word like
“terrible” to be factual.
Like for example: My sister and I are playing together, but they
misunderstand and think that my sister is my girlfriend. (Opinion)

1.Can you share a situation in your life where you had to distinguish
between a fact and an opinion? How did you handle it?
2.Reflect on a time when someone shared their opinion with you. How did
it make you feel, and how did you respond?
3.Think about a recent event you experienced. What were the facts, and
what were the opinions involved in that situation?
_______3. It's a shame that some of the money was stolen." (Opinion)
_______4. "Neither the teacher nor the students are attending the
