Revision Plan

Monday I collected your definition pieces and reviewed their/they're/there.  I also discussed the importance of reading through the book and this website AGAIN.  We went over to/too/two and you were to write two sentences using each one correctly.

Today I collected the to/to/two sentences and then we covered a little bit of the revision process.  Some of this was introduced back in chapter one.  Now that we've been writing for a while, it is important to cover again.

Your assignment is to revise TWO of your pieces of writing from earlier in the semester.  There is a Revision Priority Checklist on page 16 that will be very helpful in coming up with your revision plan.
Look at the areas of content, organization, style, and mechanics. 

On Monday I will collect your revisions AND your original pieces. 

The last part of class was spent going over the sentence revision worksheet from the how-to papers.

Have a great weekend!
