3rd Grade Reading Homework Review - Point of View - Common Core Aligned

This resource is a weekly review of author’s/narrator’s point of view of topic or event being described. This can be used for homework, morning work, or classwork.

About the 3rd Grade Point of View Reading Homework

This resource contains 4 sets of paired texts written at two levels: for average 3rd grade readers and for below 3rd grade readers.

*One set of paired texts is meant to be used for an entire week.

There is a different assignment each day with the same set of paired texts.

The students will revisit the paired texts each day to complete the daily assignment. This will support a deeper understanding of the texts and provide the student a chance to practice close reading.

There are 3 options for the daily assignments for you to choose from based on your students' needs. A blank directions page, if you want to write in your own directions for the daily assignments, is also included.

For each option, Monday through Wednesday are general, open-ended responses to the text, and Thursday is a set of text-dependent questions specific to each text. The questions are all short answer.

Follow these steps to assign the review work:

1. Choose and print the directions and passage level you want to use.

2. Print the Thursday questions.

3. Staple the three pages and you have a week’s worth of review ready for your students.

An answer key with suggested answers is included.

Topics Include:

1. Snakes

2. Roller Coasters

3. Being a Bus Driver

4. Writing
