This question tests CCSS.RL.3.6: distinguishing the student's own point of view from that of the narrator or characters. Point of view means what someone thinks or feels about something. In this passage, the narrator describes feeling nervous about a spelling test, saying 'I feel nervous' and 'I worry I will forget words.' This is the narrator's point of view - how they see the test as scary. Students might have a different point of view - they might feel calm or ready for tests instead. The narrator states 'I feel nervous about my spelling test today' and worries about forgetting, which clearly shows their anxious viewpoint. Choice A is correct because it accurately contrasts the narrator's nervous feeling with how a student might feel calm and ready, demonstrating understanding that viewpoints can differ. Choice B is a common error where students summarize the plot instead of viewpoints, which typically happens because 3rd graders are still developing the ability to separate events from opinions about them. To help students distinguish viewpoints: Use 'I think/feel' statements explicitly ('The narrator says I feel nervous. What do YOU feel?'). Create T-charts: 'Narrator's View' vs 'My View.' Ask 'Does the narrator tell us what THEY think, or what everyone thinks?' Practice with opinion words (think, feel, believe, prefer). Watch for: students confusing plot events with opinions about events; students assuming narrator's view is the only right view; students not recognizing 'I' statements as narrator's specific perspective.
