Writers Workshop - Editing

Have you noticed how busy we have been with our writing?

Our class loves writing and we are so enthusiastic about every step of the writing process! Students even take home their writing voluntarily to work on it at home! I'm so proud of their hard work and diligence and we're really excited for publishing our personal narrative next week before thanksgiving.

This week we have practiced Editing.


We used a special strategy called CUPS.


C for Capitalization.


U for word Usage.


P for Punctuation and


S for Spelling.


We learned how to edit for each of these and then checked off each letter as we did it.

Even famous authors need to edit their writing!
We feel so good that we have been able to independently proofread our own work!
