Robbers see a house from a different perspective than real estate agents. That's the big idea in a lesson about point of view. Groups assume the role of either robbers or real estate agents, note important details in a description of a house, and compare their lists. After considering various points of view, scholars rewrite a fable from the point of view of one of the characters in the tale.
