Literacy Narrative

      The peer editing and conference really helped me to understand and correct my paper better. Having others read your paper is a good way to catch errors you yourself do not. There were little changes such as capitalization and spelling that I had to fix. My biggest errors were in commas and semi colons. After changing these I felt as though the paper was easier to read and had a better flow.
      Another part of my essay I changed was I expanded on some of my meanings and sentences. When writing I tend to forget that others do not know everything I do or that they are viewing it from a different perspective. Adding more meaning and understanding to certain sentences will help the reader comprehend and relate to the topic better.

  1. Anne,

    Commas and semicolons are two of the hardest pieces of grammar to master with perfection!

    I think it's also quite easy to forget our audience when writing. I'm glad the peer-review helped you!
