Peer Editing Checklist:
|
How do I peer edit?1. Listen to your partner's personal narrative.
2. Then, look at the writing on your screen or switch and look at it from their screen. 3. Fill out the Peer Editing Checklist to "grade" their narrative and Answer their Focus area goal from yesterday. 4. Are they meeting the requirements for the FCAs and the one they chose? 5. Remember to give specific glows and a grow. 6. Check their Collins Words and point out any grammatical errors they can change. 7. Discuss the "grade" and feedback with partner. 8. Now read your personal narrative, get feedback, then both of you can make improvements. |
When you have made all of your edits and received peer feedback on Friday, please copy your Final Draft onto your own copy of this document:

I'm going to be brave and let you see my writing process as I build a personal narrative with you. Everyone's writing process is different, but my hope is to reveal some of the choices and thoughts that go through a writer's head during the process so it seems less like magic when you go from an idea to a published draft. I'm not promising perfection, just transparency and the opportunity to see how an experienced writer approaches a task.

Personal Narrative Examples:
Answer these questions before partner sharing:
1. What does the writer do to grab your attention in the beginning? Be specific. |
2. Write down at least one memorable detail or sentence from their story. Discuss with your partner why it stood out. 3. What was the theme or lesson that they learned? This should be revealed at the end of their story. • |
