 Instructional Guidance 
Developing 

  • Display examples of sentences with mistakes (mechanical, structural, verb shift) and highlight errors so students can see errors. Show students the corrected sentences so they can see differences. Read sentences aloud so students can hear how the mistakes impact the meaning of the sentence.

  • Provide examples of sentences with mistakes (mechanical, structural, verb shift) and guide students through the process of correcting errors.
  • Meet with students individually or in small groups to support them in applying grammar, mechanics, and usage conventions.
Approaching 
  • Provide an example paragraph that uses all simple sentences and guide students through the process of combining them to create smoother transitions. Provide support as needed.
  • Provide examples of sentences with mistakes (mechanical, structural, verb shift) and instruct students to correct them with partners.
  • Students will need multiple work sessions to apply grammar, mechanics, and usage conventions to their writing during the revising and editing stages of the writing process.
  • Meet with students individually or in small groups to support them in applying grammar, mechanics, and usage conventions.
