I learnt that in this stage of the writing process. Writers strive to improve on a draft by correcting error. The type of errors writers will be looking out for, includes;  - Mechanics  - Sentence fluency  - Grammar  - Types of sentences  In this session I also learnt that as an emerging teacher, i can prepare checklists for my students, to help guide them through the editing stage. The checklist can include the folling statements I have checked that all sentences begin with a capital letter and ends with a punctuation mark I have underlined the words that might be misspelled  Sentences are complete By: Inquama Crichlow 

In this session we were introduced to Descriptive Writing. DESCRIPTIVE WRITING is the clear description of people, places, objects, or events using appropriate details. An effective description will contain sufficient and varied elaboration of details to communicate a sense of the subject being described. Details used are usually sensory and selected to describe what the writer sees, hears, smells, touches, and tastes. I learnt that apart from the sensory description, that writers are to keep their writing organized so that readers are able to follow and understand. Use precise wording to engross readers.

Below is a video that will provide you with various tips on becoming an effective descriptive writer.  How to become a Descriptive Writer  Written By: Inquama Crichlow
