Grammar/Writing
Continue working on your script for your social studies project. If you think you are finished, you may begin self-editing and revising. Please do your edits in a different color font than your orignial work, so I can see what you have edited! Also, Consider the 6 traits of writing we have been working on all year: ideas, organization, sentence fluency, writer's voice, word choice, and mechanics (the grammar part of writing).
Please make sure you have shared that document with both Mr. Williams and me. I am working on reading and editng everyone's script, so be on the lookout for a comment from me!
