Learning Outcome #6

Outcome 6 (Sentence-Level Error) – Control sentence-level error (grammar, punctuation, spelling). (Word Count: 180)

As for sentence-level errors in my writing, I feel as though I do pretty well with that too. As I write, I do little revisions along the way before I do my final touches after my whole piece is written. I also have either my friends or family proofread my writing to make sure it makes sense. Sometimes I will read my writing out loud when I do not have access to friends/family.

As for punctuation around quotes, I do well with this too.
