There are many elements to a story and you have learned quite a few of the terms this year. Your assignment today is on 'POINTS OF VIEW'. Read the following and complete #1-3.
POINT OF VIEW (POV):
a.) First Person POV - In a first-person narrative the story is told by a narrator who is also a character within the story, so that the narrator reveals the plot by referring to this viewpoint character as "I" (or, when plural, "we").
b.) Second Person POV - second-person narrative mode, in which the narrator refers to one of the characters as "you", therefore making the audience member feel as if he or she is a character within the story.
c.) Third Person POV - In the third-person narrative mode, each and every character is referred to by the narrator as "he", "she", "it", or "they", but never as "I" or "we" (first-person), or "you" (second-person).
ASSIGNMENT:
1.) Read the notes and make sure you understand the different 'POINTS OF VIEW'.
2.) Decide which point of view the author uses in the novel and explain why you chose it.
2.) Give an example from the novel where the author uses the point of view that you chose.

ReplyDeleteNice example cole mcgrath! Be sure to fix your small errors like how you didn't finish your sentence with a quotation mark. Also, you have to be sure you capitalize the first letter of "you".
DeleteThe book is written in Third Person Perspective. An example of this would be, 'Half walking, half crawling, she stumbled to the cabin.'
ReplyDeleteI think that this book is written in third person POV because it had sentences like--
ReplyDelete1. As soon as Harriet was able to walk again, she was sent to the fields.
2. Harriet sat in the middle of the floor with the baby in her arms.
3. Thomas Garret took her arm and led her to the carriage.
Nice job! You could add more detail. Great job.
DeleteThe Freedom Train is a third person point of view because it said, "Harriet sat in the middle of the floor with the baby in her arms.
ReplyDeleteThe book freedom train is the Third POV because It says Harrit had a baby in her arms (on pg. 1 or 2)
ReplyDelete(REVISED)
ReplyDeleteI think that this book is written in third person POV because there was a narrator, and he/she used words like "she" "he" or "they. Some examples would be sentences like--
1. As soon as Harriet was able to walk again, she was sent to the fields.
2. Harriet sat in the middle of the floor with the baby in her arms.
3. Thomas Garret took her arm and led her to the carriage.
