Some of these teacher recommended fiction books might be a good fit for for this graphic organizer, or check out these fiction books that will help you teach point of view.

This point of view graphic organizer does not accompany a book or article. Instead, it has 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students think carefully on a topic that has people might disagree on.

Students must come up with reasons to support BOTH sides of an argument, which often can help them become more sympathetic towards people that disagree with them. (You might like these lesson ideas for helping students learn to disagree and think about opposing points of view - and a freebie!)

During a study of sharks, for example, you could have your students discuss whether or not sharks are dangerous to humans. On one side of the graphic organizer, have students come up with reasons that explain why sharks ARE dangerous. On the other side of the graphic organizer, have students support the idea that sharks are NOT dangerous.

This point of view graphic organizer can be used with most nonfiction books or articles. However, it is best used with a book or article where the author has a very clear point of view.

In this point of view graphic organizer, upper elementary students are asked to explain how the author feels about the main topic of the book. Students then give clues to help support their reasoning. Finally, students are asked to explain whether they agree or disagree with the author.

If you are reading an article about dogs, for example, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students would explain how the author feels about dogs. (Do they make a good pet? Are they easy to take care of? etc.)

Common Core Standards Grade 6 Reading RL.6.6

# data[].attributes.body
This Common Core Standard is all about making students know what the narrator thinks about something and, more importantly, why they're sure that's how the narrator thinks. For example, they might know that the main character thinks the police are good guys, but how are we sure about that? Think of this standard as the inverse of its fifth-grade counterpart, which assumes that students know the character's point of view and asks them to extrapolate out (working outward). In sixth grade, students already know the character's point of view but instead have to figure out what reveals that point of view.

Writing Prompt: Who is the narrator of this story?  How would you classify this point of view? Does this narrative perspective change? Why might Tolstoy have chosen to write from this strange perspective?
