How to use this sheet

  • Have the student underline the pronouns in the passage first: I and we, you, or he, she and they.
  • For each answer, have the student give a quote that shows it.
  • Ask what the reader knows that a character does not, for questions about irony and point of view.

Common mistakes

  • Calling a story first person because it has dialogue with "I". Look at the narration, outside the quotation marks.
  • Mixing up third person limited and omniscient. Omniscient narration shows what several characters think.
  • Calling any surprise irony. Irony is a gap between what is expected and what happens or is meant.
