After you have completed your first draft, take a careful look at it. Proof read it carefully. Don't skim or skip. Read every word. You may find letters you've left out by accident, misspellings, comma and apostrophe errors, and errors in syntax. Use the handouts (found in the classroom and on the right hand column of this page): "Camilla's Comma Rules," "Camilla's Apostrophe Rules" and "Camilla's Grammar and Spelling Tips" to correct your work. Make your corrections, and make sure to use a different color pen or pencil, so that your corrections are evident.
Each of your folders has a "Student-Teacher Conferences" sheet. It is the record of our discussions about your work. Take a look at it periodically to remind yourself what areas you need to focus on in order to improve.
