Step by Step Ratiocination (Revising & Editing) Printable for ANY ESSAY
The revising and editing stage of the writing process can be difficult for students because they don't purposely write with mistakes, therefore they have a hard time spotting them. So, when you announce with enthusiasm, "Okay, now that you've written your first drafts go ahead and revise and edit your essays!" it shouldn't surprise you that magic doesn't automatically happen in the classroom. For the past 3 years I've used ratiocination to provide my students with guidelines on how to revise and

This is an area where many of my students struggle because they do not have never as much exposure to it. I believe that they struggle understanding the text because they read it like they would with fiction. As we know, the students have to read Non-fiction text with a whole new lense.
