We discussed good editing strategies before I split you into groups of two to complete the session.
You were all so productive, I am giving you about 15 minutes to meet with one other partner tomorrow. In addition, as an author, you will be asked to identify a few grammatical portions of your draft. In order to do this, you will have to recall material from last year---so be ready to put your thinking caps on!
Homework:
---If you have not turned in the front page of your agenda signed, please do tomorrow!
If you want to get ahead of the game here are a few things that can get you that much closer to turning in your final copy:
- type your draft
- print out a copy of the rubric below
- have a parent/aunt/uncle/grandparent/older sibling read your draft and sign it for proof
