Great Job!

Now you're ready to check your spelling, punctuation,

misused words, and proof-reading your

story!

Spelling= if you see a word that looks spelled wrong, look it up in the dictionary.

Punctuation=

(exclamation mark) != showing emotion, or excitement.

(period) .= the end of a statement.

(Question mark) ?= going at the end of a question.

(quotation marks) "or" = are used when someone is saying something.

(comma) , = when you take a breath.

Misused words = read the story and see if your words make since, if they don't find the correct word by asking an adult, using your own knowledge, or looking in a book.

Proof-reading your story= read your story over, and check all the things listed  above in your story. Then reread your story, with the corrections you've made.

You have done a great job with making a story!

Now, you're ready to print, and share your story with others.

This can help you make stories at school, and you would be ahead of the gang.

Also you can write stories anywhere else for fun, or for practice!

We hope you come back to this site.

Have Fun!

Thanks!
