Presentation transcript:

Identifying Point of View or Bias SWBAT evaluate a text and create responses about the author’s point of view or bias.

Point of View (P.O.V.) or Bias EQ: How can I analyze a reading selection to respond to the author’s point of view or bias?

Point of View (P.O.V.) or Bias You may be asked to analyze the author’s point of view or bias.

Step 1: Determine whether the author uses more positive words or more negative words.

Step 2: Try to answer the question in your own words.

Step 3: Look for the choice that best matches your answer.

Now it’s time to think about how to analyze and summarize.

Next EQ: How do I analyze the best way to summarize a text?

Reading questions often ask you to choose the best summary of a passage.

Step 1: As you read the passage slowly and carefully, look for the main idea and supporting details.

Step 2: Consider every answer choice. Eliminate choices that: restate a single detail from the passage make a very general statement with no supporting details have little or nothing to do with the passage

Step 3: Be sure the answer you choose seems to cover the entire passage, including the main idea and supporting details.
