Extra notes to assist you

Please look at the following note on editing: they will help you:

Editing (the post-writing phase) is very important.

It has three main functions:

1. To correct grammatical mistakes

  • Sentence construction
  • Use of tenses
  • Spelling
  • Punctuation
  • Concord

2. To find out if you followed the instructions

  • Have you done what was asked?
  • Have you included extra creative requirements?

3. To correct the writing structure

  • A proper introduction
  • Body covering topic fully
  • Close, framing the work

Editing becomes second nature after a while.

Now that you have done all the activities in this module, re-draw the graph you completed at the start of this module.

The difference between your two lines is what you have learnt! Well done!

For fun, here is space for you to write the words of your own song. If you are satisfied, ask a friend who can write music to put your words to music. You never know – you could be famous one day!
