Point of View Book Search
This book search activity is a fun way for your class to learn about different points of view. Go to the library, copy down a sentence from 5 different books and work out what point of view the text is written in. Alternatively, use the book list on page 2 and see how many of the books you can find, read a sentence from each and record the point of view.
