[W.2.5] - With guidance and support from adults and peers, focus on a topic and strengthen writing as needed by revising and editing.

Resources:


  • Editing
    Component of writing and preparing presentations concerned chiefly with improving clarity, organization, conciseness, and appropriateness of expression relative to task, purpose, and audience; often involves replacing or deleting words, phrases, and sentences that are awkward or confusing and correcting errors in spelling, usage, mechanics, and grammar. See Revising, Rewriting
  • Revising
