Learning Target: I can successfully revise/edit/assess my argumentative essay Do Now: List 2-3 reasons why it is important to peer and self assess a piece of writing

Revising Revising is finding & correcting problems with content; changing the ideas in your writing to make them clearer, stronger, and more convincing. Revising looks at the “Big Picture”—the Idea level.

Revision Strategies Look for Unity Does everything refer back to main point? Does each topic sentence refer to the thesis? Does each sentence in each body paragraph refer back to the topic sentence? Detail and support Does each body paragraph contain at least two examples? Is each example followed by at least one supporting detail? Coherence Are all points connect to form a whole? Are transitions used to move from one idea to the next?

Revision Tips Take a break from your draft before attempting to revise. Read your draft out loud and listen to your words. Imagine yourself as your reader. Look for consistent problem areas. Get feedback from peers.

Editing Editing is finding and correcting problems with grammar, style, word choice & usage, and punctuation. Editing focuses on the “Little Picture”—Word level.

Editing Strategies Keep an Error Log to help you identify your problem areas and improve your writing. This would be something to help you grow personally as a writer. When editing, review your paper for one type of error at a time; don’t try to read through looking for everything at once.

Editing Tips Work with a clean printed copy, 1.5 spaced to allow room to mark corrections. Read your essay backwards. Be cautious of spell-check and grammar-check. USE A DICTIONARY/WRITE SOURCE. Read your essay out loud. Get feedback from peers. Work with a group member!

Step 1: Understanding the Rubric With a partner, look over the rubric for this assignment. Your Goal: discuss the key elements of a successful literary analysis. Steps to Success: ask questions about unfamiliar terms on the rubric give examples of what the rubric is asking for

Self-Review You should never move to peer review without first completing a self-review (revising & editing); you want your peer to look for mistakes that you were unable to catch yourself! After you have reviewed your own work, make the necessary corrections and print a clean, revised copy before moving on to peer review.

Peer-Review It is important to make the peer review process useful. Basics of useful feedback: It is given in a positive way It is specific It offers suggestions It is given both verbally and in writing

Revise/Edit Look over your rough draft! Make sure you have hit all of the requirements and MOST IMPORTANTLY: ANTICIPATE QUESTIONS A READER MAY HAVE!!!!
