3. What narrative perspective does the author use ? Analyze how the author uses this narrative perspective and how it affects the story. - 20 points
4. Evaluate why the author uses this perspective and how the story would be different if told from a different point of view. - 20 points
Guided / Independent
Complete work from yesterday regarding inferencing - NOTES FROM A BOTTLE - pretend you are detective and you must look for clues in the story in order to answer the questions. You must give reasons why you think what you think and those reasons must relate to something in the story!!! Find them!!
For#9, CREDIBLE means BELIEVABLE. Write that in your notes. The question is asking you to EVALUATE how believable the journal entries are. Go back and look at the behavior of the characters and determine if the whole account of what happened is believable. Remember, first person point of view can often be biased!!
Exit Pass
If I do notebook checks every other Friday, what can you infer is going to happen this Friday?
