Listening to Feedback on Your Writing W1-mt_OyOYHlZ2_T-s1

  1. Add a sentence about how the sand felt · The question asks how the sand felt. A sentence about that feeling answers it. Details about how the waves looked or what you ate do not answer it.
  2. To hear if the words make sense · Reading aloud can help you hear a missing word or a part that is hard to follow.
  3. True · Feedback gives you ideas for making your writing clearer and stronger.
  4. The dog jumped over the fence. · The teacher asks what happened next. Jumping over the fence is an action. Fur and ear details describe how the dog looked.
  5. on · Adding "on" gives a complete sentence: "The cat sat on the mat." Try the word and reread the whole sentence.
  6. Ava found a shell. · 'Ava found a shell' names who found something and what she found. Each other sentence leaves one of those questions unanswered.
  7. False · Eli may have missed a mistake. Reading aloud helps him check, but it does not prove that he found them all.
  8. Keep the clear sentence as it is. · Zoe has listened and checked the sentence with her teacher. They agree it is clear, so she can keep it.
