Exploring Narrators and Perspectives

LI: To understand how authors use pronouns to change the point of view the story is told from

Narrators are important vessels of information that often retell to us the events that are happening in a story. However, narrators use different perspectives and point of views to influence the audience’s reaction to the story. These perspectives are first person, second person, third person, third person limited and third person omniscient.

While first, second and third person are familiar, we introduce ourself to third person limited and third person omniscient. We also explored the different pronouns that each point of view uses and how the author influences the reader’s perspective on a text by the use of vocabulary and point of view.

I found this activity helpful because though I was familiar with some of them, it also taught me some new perspectives which helps me had on to my prior knowledge.
