Check understanding

- Identify and correct a tense inconsistency in a piece of writing
- Discuss improvements with a partner and make at least one revision to strengthen the writing
“When your child finishes a piece of writing, do they proofread it for spelling mistakes, missing punctuation, and errors in grammar — and make corrections before handing it in?”
