Description

Each two-page spread in the Grade Level Teacher Books contains two of the student's daily editing paragraphs on the right-hand side and the corresponding corrected teacher's editing key on the left. Student pages are reproducible and include a "Watch For" icon in the margin which clues them in to some specific types of errors to watch for. Each error is corrected in red in the key, and a helpful error summary is also included with a total for each type of error found in the paragraph. The error summary allows you to inform your student how many errors of each type there are, if desired, to help them find each one. A short "Language Handbook" is found in the back, and makes referencing capitalization, punctuation and language usage easy and accessible through the use of charts and examples.

Publisher's Description of Daily Paragraph Editing, Grade 5

Daily Paragraph Editing, Grade 5 Teacher Resource Book includes 36 weeks of targeted lessons that will immediately become your favorite supplement to your language arts curriculum. The 176 page focused language arts activities provide the practice students need to produce error-free writing assignments and include easy-to-use teacher support to deliver the lessons.

How it works:

Students apply grade-level language skills to correct a paragraph on Monday through Thursday; when read together, the four paragraphs form a cohesive composition. A writing prompt on Friday relates to the week's four-paragraph composition and gives students the chance to apply the targeted language conventions.

The weekly compositions cover a broad range of expository and narrative writing forms, including:

  • nonfiction texts on grade-level social studies and science topics
  • biographies, book reviews, instructions, interviews, journal entries, and letters
  • fables, fantasy and science fiction, historical fiction, personal narratives,
    and realistic fiction

Daily Paragraph Editing Grade 5 covers grade-level skills such as:

  • Capitalization
    • quotations, salutations, and closings
    • incorrect use of capitals
    • names of people, places, and organizations
    • titles of books, magazines, movies, and songs
  • Language Usage
    • singular and plural forms
    • verb tenses
    • correct use of pronouns and adjectival and adverbial forms
  • Punctuation
    • apostrophes
    • commas
    • periods
    • quotation marks
    • colons, semicolons, and more!
  • Spelling
    • identifying errors in spelling and in multiple-meaning words

Additional resources include:

  • a reproducible student language handbook that provides simple, clear rules and examples of their application to guide students in correct use of the mechanics, grammar, and spelling skills covered in the daily paragraphs.
  • a page of reproducible proofreading marks that models the standard markings used to correct and edit text.
  • an editing checklist to guide students in reviewing and revising their own writing or that of a peer.
  • an assessment rubric to guide teachers in conducting a holistic evaluation of student writing.
Category Description for Daily Paragraph Editing

This series gives students a manageable paragraph of editing practice each day. Each book consists of 36 weekly lessons. Monday - Thursday daily editing worksheets are four paragraphs (one each day) on related subject material filled with capitalization, punctuation, spelling, and language usage errors. A writing prompt related to that week's topic is given on Friday so the student may compose their own paragraph.

An easy-to-use way to include a little bit of editing into the little bit of time you have each day. ~ Jess
