Process Questions
1. Is a narrator or character telling the story?
(first person or third person)
2. If a narrator is telling the story, does the
narrator convey the inner thoughts and
motives of the characters (omniscient third
person) or is the narrator an observer and
limited in this knowledge (limited third
person)?
3. What clues from the story support the
selected point of view?
4. How would a section of the story be told
differently if the point of view were different
(e.g. change a passage from omniscient third
person to limited third person)?
5. How can these different points of view be
compared?
