ENGLISH – HOURS 1 & 3 – Day 10

· Just like yesterday, number a paper 1 – 11…divide your paper into 3 columns, then from memory, fill in as much of the prefix handout as you can remember.

o After you’ve exhausted your memory, take out your PINK sheets and fill in the rest of your 3 columns.

· ADD TO NOTES: Take out your Literary Terms handout (page 2) – read the “Point of View” paragraph noting the 3 different kinds of narrators/points of view – then…

o Add the following notes to the Point of View section of your handouts (write SMALL in the margins of your handout):

§ Third Person Objective point of view is when a writer provides only facts.

· In Objective Point of View the reader has access to nobody's head…just the facts. (see drawing below)

· The advantage of Objective Point of View is that it’s a good discipline for you as the writer. It absolutely forces you to show-not-tell.

§ In Third Person Limited Point of View the reader has access to one person's head at a time. (see drawing below)

§ In Omniscient Point of View the reader has access to everybody's head at the same time. (see drawing below)

§ SECOND person point of view: When the reader is directly addressed with YOU, YOUR, and YOURS

o DRAW these 3 pictures on their handouts, next to the appropriate definition…

o Watch short video…on “Point of View – First, Second, & Third Person”

· HANDOUT: Complete “Literary Skillmaster 1 – Point of View, Part 1” handout – both sides

· DIRECTIONS: Pretend you have been asked to rewrite 5 key moments from “The Most Dangerous Game,” however, the publisher would like to hear how the story would sound from each of the 4 kinds of Points of View (1st person, 2nd person, 3rd person-limited-omniscient, 3rd person omniscient, 3rd person-objective). Write 2 sentences for each Point of View – choose any moments you want from the actual story. (10 sentences total)
