This handout contains all the editing symbols I use on student papers. I give them this handout at the start of the school year and require them to keep it in their binders for future reference. This way, I am able to shorten my grading time by placing symbols next to errors on their papers instead of long written monologue that they learn to recognize.
I have 9 years of experience as an English II and English II HP teacher. I have also taught courses for 9th and 11th grade English, Language Skills, Advanced Journalism and Yearbook.
