This writing strategies lesson focuses on revising writing from a consistent point of view. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the passage and underline all pronouns used. Then, they determine if the first, second, or third person is used in each sentence. Then, they identify any sentences that use an inconsistent point of view and rewrite it. Finally, they reread the passage as revised and explain how this change maintains a consistent point of view. In addition to the lesson, there are four more pages for Independent Practice and review modeled after current adaptive testing items.
