Today's lesson addressed narrative point of view. We studied a number of passages in the novel and identified the third person point of view. I then discussed the first person point of view and compared this perspective to reading a diary that included the writer's thoughts and emotions . For today's exercise, Atticus then rewrote a portion of a previously studied chapter from the first person point of view of the main character , Salva. Atticus did well with this exercise and included thoughts and feelings of the main character that the third person point of view chose to omit. We then reviewed Atticus' study guide homework. Although Atticus had some difficulty with the assignment, after I directed his attention to specific pages of the novel , he was able to complete the work successfully.
