Revising
Check Your First Draft 🟪 Look closely at each part—the topic sentence, the body, and the ending sentence.
- Are your sentences clear and in the best order?
- Do you need to add more details about your topic? (Check the samples on pages 55–58 for help.)
Editing & Proofreading
Correct Your Writing 🟪 Use these questions as a guide when you check your revised writing for errors:
- Are your words interesting and colorful (crumpled instead of old)?
- Have you used the right words, and are your words spelled correctly?
- Does each of your sentences begin with a capital letter and end with the correct punctuation mark?
- Did you indent your paragraph?
