2 Point of View Notes First Person: told from the viewpoint of one of the characters in the story using I or we 1st Second Person: the narrator tells the story to another 2nd character or is directly talking to the reader using you ; this is the least commonly used point of view Third Person Limited: 3rd L the narrator is an outside observer who can tell us the thoughts and feelings of only one character in the story. Third Person Omniscient: 3rd O the narrator is an outside observer who can tell us the thoughts and feelings of all the characters in the story r2et6u 2
3 1st I tasted the first bowl of porridge, but it was too hot. Ouch, I thought as I fanned my burned tongue. Point of View Drag & Drop Activity 2nd You should really be careful when tasting someone else s porridge. You don t want to burn your tongue like I did when I tasted the first bowl of porridge. 3rd Limited Goldilocks tasted the first bowl of porridge, but it was too hot. Ouch, she thought as she fanned her burned tongue. 3rd Omniscient Goldilocks tasted the first bowl of porridge, but it was too hot. Ouch, she thought as she fanned her burned tongue. In the meantime, on the other side of the forest, the bears began to think about how hungry they were and started walking back home. 3
4 Character Traits You learn about people's qualities or traits by observing the way they look, talk, and act. -Direct characterization: the narrator will directly tell you what a character is like. Ex: Scrooge is a misanthrope. He hated anyone that mentioned Christmas. Indirect Characterization: the narrator reveals the character through his/her physical appearance, other characters, and/ or speech, thoughts, and actions. 4
5 Indirect Characterization continued... Physical Appearance: Description of a character's looks, clothing, body language, and facial expressions. Ex: Maddie walked stiffly toward her new locker, a solemn expression glued to her face. Other Characters: Presentation of others' impressions of the character and their interactions or relationships with him or her Ex: Maddie's classmates smirked and laughed as she walked by. Not only was she unfriendly, they concluded, but she took herself way too seriously. Speech, thoughts, and actions: Presentation of a character's speech patterns, habits, talents, opinions, and interactions with others Ex: This was Maddie's third move in five years, and she was sick of starting over. This time, she vowed to keep to herself. No longer would she waste any energy trying to fit in. ZnD0AGqQ7I 5
6 Character Motivation Definition: The reasons behind their actions To uncover a character's motivation, you must look for details in the story. Consider the following: the narrator's direct comments about a character's motivation a character's actions, thoughts, and values your own understanding of the emotions-love, greed, ambition, jealousy-that drive human behavior 6
