Wednesday, April 11 - Point of View - Poetry

Objective: By the end of class, students will analyze point of view in a poem in order to prepare for the Keystone Exam.

DO  NOW

Explain the EFFECT of either 1st person or 3rd limited POV compared to 3rd person Omniscient narrator. Why is it not always best for the reader or viewer to know what ALL characters are thinking and/or feeling??

(think about Lamb to the Slaughter and the difference between the story written in 3rd person Limited and the film that was in 3rd Omniscient).

Direct Instruction

Review narrative perspective quiz from yesterday. 

Guided / Independent

Look at the multiple choice questions for the poem Starlings in Winter. Which ones can we answer without reading the poem? (Use multiple choice strategies to try to cross at least two choices out id possible).

Read Starlings in Winter and annotate together.

The perspective changes through the poem. Notice this as we read. Where exactly does it change?? Mark it on the poem.

Answer the multiple choice questions.
