Editing Guidelines for Essays

This handout provides specific essay editing instructions that help students tighten their writing. With this handy guide, they learn to easily correct major grammar and usage mistakes as well as to eliminate useless words. Done as a whole class exercise, it’s fun, too.

Although I use this in my college English classrooms, it can just as easily be used in middle or high school.
