Point of View — Answer Key
Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. Rewrite 'I kicked the ball hard' in third person about Sam: 'Sam kicked the ball hard.'
Only the pronoun changes; the ball stays the same object in both versions.
2. Rewrite 'I love my puppy' in third person about Lily: 'Lily loves her puppy.'
In third person, I becomes the character's name to show the narrator is outside.
3. Rewrite 'I felt scared in the dark' in third person about Ben: 'Ben felt scared in the dark.'
The feeling stays the same; only the narrator's pronoun changes to third person.
4. Rewrite 'My mom baked cookies' in third person about Zoe: 'Zoe's mom baked cookies.'
The possessive my becomes a name with 's in third-person point of view.
5. Rewrite 'We went to the park' in third person about the twins: 'The twins went to the park.'
We becomes the twins, and the location park stays unchanged in third person.
6. Rewrite 'I am writing a story' in third person about Kai: 'Kai is writing a story.'
With Kai as the subject, the verb changes from am writing to is writing.
7. Rewrite 'I have a red backpack' in third person about Mia: 'Mia has a red backpack.'
In third person singular, have changes to has to agree with Mia.
8. Rewrite 'I ride my bike to school' in third person about Jay: 'Jay rides his bike to school.'
The place school stays the same; only the pronoun and verb ending change.
9. Rewrite 'I finished my homework' in third person about Ana: 'Ana finished her homework.'
My becomes her to match Ana as a third-person singular female character.
Part B: Matching
Match each item on the left to the correct answer on the right.
1. Match each item to its correct answer.
I ran fast (about Tom)
→ Tom ran fast
Tom ran fast
I have a cat (about Rose)
→ Rose has a cat
Rose has a cat
I sing songs (about Leo)
→ Leo sings songs
Leo sings songs
I feel happy (about Sue)
→ Sue feels happy
Sue feels happy
Each I sentence becomes a third-person sentence by swapping I for the character's name and adjusting the verb.
