Friday October 21, 2022 -Revise and Edit Guided Skills Check

Master revising & editing! Practice grammar, punctuation, and clarity with our guided skills check.

Today, I will revisit the Skills Check on Revising and Editing from last Friday. I will re-do the most common missed questions, but I will now use a simplified version of a question and YouTube videos that will guide my understanding for each of the questions. The purpose of this activity is to notice the mistakes that I made in the previous Skills Check and track my progress through this new simplified skills check.At the end of this skills check, I want to go back to the skills check from Friday and notice the difference in the way my teacher asked the questions. It is still the same question just a simplified version.
