In Language Arts today we began to discuss point of view. \u00a0The students were introduced to the concepts of first, second, third person limited, and third person omniscient points of view. \u00a0They were given a note sheet to help them determine point of view. \u00a0We glued this into our interactive notebooks. \u00a0We also looked at a powerpoint about point of view. \u00a0I have attached the powerpoint to this blog post. \u00a0Additionally, we read the poem, “On Turning Ten,” with a partner and determined what the point of view is. \u00a0When the students returned to their seats, I asked them to point to the part of the poem that helped them figure out what the point of view was and why this helped them. \u00a0We discussed that when we use specific parts of our reading to figure out something that goes along with the story, this is called using specific evidence from the text to support our thinking. \u00a0We will be working on this skill frequently throughout the course of the school year.<\/p>\n

Announcement: The last day to submit money for vocabulary books is this Friday. \u00a0Please make sure that all money is turned in to me by then.<\/p>\n
