Week 21- Author's Point Of View

My 6th grade teacher did a mini-lesson on Author's Point of view.  He used an article from the St. Petersburg Times about Florida schools allowing cell phones in class.  This was a short piece of text so he could focus the lesson on determining the Author's Point of View (POV) by citing text evidence.  He read the text aloud and then had the students underline words/phrases from the text that would show the author's POV.  He then had them use the sentence fames(see chart below) to write out their ideas about the author's POV.  It was a short, but meaningful lesson to kick off the study of POV.
