FIRST PERSON TO ASK WILL HAVE TO WRITE ME AN
ESSAY ON WHY READING DIRECTIONS IS IMPORTANT
 WHAT WAS
POV?
What were the different types of POV???
POV – Compare Contrast
 We all see life through our own eyes. It is often said that we
should walk a mile in each other’s shoes to better understand
who the other person is. In literature, often authors select a
specific Point of View to tell a story. This has a dramatic
influence over the kind of story being told, how characters
are viewed, and how biased information might be. As a
reader, consider this story from a different Point of View. How
would the narration be different, the characterization, the
validity, or truth of the story? Compare and Contrast this
Point of View to the actual Point of View. How are they
different? Similar? Once you compare and contrast these two
points of view, come to a conclusion for why the author
chose this Point of View over another POV.

 As you read the story, pay close attention to who
is telling the story, the way characters are reveled
(characterization), and if the narration is biased.
 This will be what you will need to consider in a
different POINT OF VIEW.
 After you finish reading. Fill out the Point of View
organizer. This should help you write the Compare
Contrast Essay.
When
you compare things, you
show their similarities;
when you contrast things,
you show
their differences.
 We can really understand only those things
that are familiar to us or similar to things
we already understand, so comparing and
contrasting the unfamiliar with the familiar
is one of the most important techniques for
writing. You can, and probably do, use
comparison and contrast to describe
things, to define things, to analyze things,
to make an argument -- to do, in fact,
almost any kind of writing.
YOUR C&C ESSAY IS
