Have your class practice determining whose point of view is being utilized throughout the course of a story. They begin by working as a class to create a chart which will provide textual examples that describe first and third person point of view. They then read the story, Where The Wild Things Are and write a paragraph describing what point of view is used, if it changed, and how they could tell.
