This week we are wrapping up our fantasy unit. Homework this week will be a little different, and all of our effort is going towards Long Composition Writing.
Today during class we are going to practice editing and revising.
Revising Strategies:
1. "Tap in" to make sure your story makes sense
2. Circle all punctuation marks " " ? ! , ' .
3. Circle all misspelled words and look them up in the dictionary
4. Replace boring words with spicy words :)
5. "Tap in" again to make sure your story makes sense and flows
MUST HAVE: Capital letters must be used in the beginning of your sentences and for all proper nouns.
Tuesday night: Final draft of step 1 and step 2
