Today's Quick Write Challenge!


Read the Point of View definitions below. CHOOSE ONE option and write from a third person point of view.  

Third-person Limited 

 The story is usually told chiefly from the main character’s point of view. It will focus on only the thoughts of one character.  Many of the books you read are probably written in the third person. (KEY WORDS: hesheitherhischaracter name and so on)

Third-person Omniscient(also known as All-Knowing Point of View):

The storyteller knows each character’s experiences, thoughts, feelings, and actions. It will focus on more than one character's thoughts. (KEY WORDS: hesheitherhischaracter name and so on)
