Point of View: A Collaboration by Glenwood Middle School Teachers

What is Point of View? The “voice” from which a story is told. The author chooses the point of view for a particular purpose. There are three main points of view from which a story can be told.

What is First Person Point of View? The narrator is a character in the story. First person pronouns are used, such as I, me, we, and us. We are only told what the narrator knows and feels.

What is First Person Point of View? It is limited to what one person knows and is controlled by that person’s thoughts and feelings. It is likely to be convincing because as in life, a person tells us directly what happened to them.

What is First Person Point of View? It is easier to identify ourselves with the central character, the “I” of the story. We should realize that what the narrator is recounting might not be the objective truth, and we should question the trustworthiness of the accounting.

What is Third Person Point of View? The story is told by someone not in the story at all. The narrator lets us know exactly how the characters feel.

There are two types of third person point of view. Third person omniscient Third person limited omniscient What is Third Person Point of View? Third-person pronouns are used, such as he, she, it, they, and them.

What is Third Person Omniscient? A narrator who knows everything about all the characters, including their thoughts and feelings. This narrator is all knowing, or omniscient.

What is Third Person Limited Omniscient? The narrator whose knowledge is limited to one character, either major or minor. The narrator reveals the thoughts and feelings of only one character.

What is the Objective Point of View? The writer tells what happens without stating more than can be inferred from the story’s action and dialogue. The narrator never discloses anything about what the characters think or feel. This is the difference between the objective point of view and third person point of view.
