Step 4: Get Help from Classmates
At this point you've probably spent many hours working
on your first draft. Now you might find yourself asking
a whole new set of questions.
- How will people feel when they read your story?
- Does it make sense?
- Is it interesting and informative?
- Are there spelling, punctuation and/or grammatical
errors that you may have missed earlier?
These are all issues you must tackle before you publish
your story.
To get a fresh perspective, share your article with a classmate.
Choose a partner and tell him or her what you need help
with. Read your story aloud or have your partner look it
over silently. Listen carefully to his or her questions
and suggestions. Then work on your next draft. You may need
to repeat this step if you're still having problems.
