Let's solve this
"Point of View" worksheet step by step.
---
🔍 Understanding the Two Points of View:
-
1st person uses pronouns like:
I, me, my, we, our
→ The speaker is talking about themselves.
-
3rd person uses pronouns like:
he, she, they, them, their, his, him, her
→ The speaker is talking about someone else (not themselves).
---
Now, let’s analyze each sentence and determine its point of view:
---
1.
She is a kind girl.
- Pronoun: *She* → 3rd person
✔ 3rd person
2.
He is her brother.
- Pronouns: *He*, *her* → both are third-person pronouns
✔ 3rd person
3.
I am so tired today.
- Pronoun: *I* → 1st person
✔ 1st person
4.
When is my bedtime?
- Pronoun: *my* → refers to "me" (the speaker)
✔ 1st person
5.
They went to the movies.
- Pronoun: *They* → 3rd person
✔ 3rd person
6.
Her class is next to his.
- Pronouns: *Her*, *his* → both refer to others
✔ 3rd person
7.
Do these books belong to them?
- Pronoun: *them* → 3rd person
✔ 3rd person
8.
My teacher is walking down the hall.
- Pronoun: *My* → refers to the speaker's teacher
- But note: *My* is first-person possessive, but the subject is
teacher, not the speaker.
→ The sentence is describing someone else (the teacher), so it's still
3rd person
✔ 3rd person

✔ Final Answers:
| Sentence | Point of View |

| She is a kind girl. |
3rd |
| He is her brother. |

📌 Summary:
-
1st person: Sentences 3 & 4 (because of "I" and "my")
-
3rd person: All others (using "she", "he", "they", "her", "his", "them")
✔ So, you would draw lines from:
-
"I am so tired today." and
"When is my bedtime?" → to
1st
- All other sentences → to
3rd
This completes the worksheet! 😊
