English 10 Prompt: -Setting: A cafeteria -Characters: A stern cook, a playful student, and a hungry student -Conflict: The playful student is holding up the serving line 2.

Label each brief paragraph and post them on your blog as one post titled, “Paper Airplane from Different Points of View.”

First-person narration (A playful student.)
“ You wanna play Rock, Paper, Scissors?” I told Chanda. I asked everybody that was in line if they wanted to play; and I got almost everybody to play at least one game. Then Johnny yelled because I was holding up the line.

Third- Person limited (A stern cook.)
“I’m going to make tomorrow’s lunch nasty and salty!” he said. I always have to cook for them and then have to go home and cook for myself. Who would want to stand in line for food these unappreciative children who are going to end up throwing it away.

Omniscient Narration ( A hungry student.)

The boy was looking at the cook and he looks really tired of cooking for these children. He had a look of disbelief on his face. A kid walked up to him and told him that he thought his food was nasty. They started arguing back and forth and eventually got sent to the office to have a mediation.
