A lot of point of view resources focus on helping students distinguish between 1st and 3rd person, but point of view is so much more than this, and these free point of view worksheets addresses a variety of POV skills.
When teaching point of view, we need to help 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students think about author bias and how their own point of view might differ from the author or character's point of view. As texts become more difficult, students also need practice in determining who the narrator is.
If you're looking for fun books to integrate in to your lessons, then check out this fun, new book that has multiple perspectives!
Free Point of View Activity
Use this point of view freebie to give students extra practice with different point of view skills.
The pdf freebie includes 3 different activities.
- The first worksheet has students read the same short story told from 4 different points of view and determine who the narrator is for each short story.
- The second worksheet helps students to consider author bias. Students read a short, extremely biased reading passage. Then, they answer questions that help them consider that bias and think about how their own point of view might be different.
- The third activity asks students to determine what the character or author believes and determine how their own point of view might differ.

I love how extensive this resource is. It really helped me guide my students through the process and it allowed them to work independently as well. Thank you!"
