· All my words are correctly spelled with a whole lot of advanced ones. I used my spelling patterns, spell checked, a dictionary and a thesaurus. · All the punctuation, much harder than a regular fourth grader, is mostly correct. I can read my paper so easily because of it. · I recognized just where to use my capitals that I approach perfection! |
|
· I can spell key, easy and some hard words correctly. I did check my spelling but I missed a few. · I try to do what our class said was expected for a 4-F student but I didn’t do all of it. I checked, perhaps too quickly, and missed some. · Most of my capitals are correct! |
|
· A lot of words are correct that I should know. I didn’t check my work. · I can’t even really tell where one sentence begins and ends because of my punctuation. My work is hard to read and it doesn’t make sense. · I don’t use capitals at the right time. My mistakes are so obvious! |

In October, 4-F students said they should be able to do the follow things in mechanics.
CapitalizationAt the beginning of a sentence.Proper nouns InitialsTitles And not in the middle of a sentence |
SpellingSimple words from earlier grades.Use my spelling words that I have had or other hard words sometimes. Try hard words out using the spelling rules we have learned even if I don’t get it all right.If it is not a creative piece, be sure that my prefixes and suffixes are used correctly. Watch out for homophones (two-to-too or there-their-they’re).

PunctuationMake sure punctuation goes where it shouldApostrophes for ownership and contractions End punctuation that matches the kind of sentenceNo ( ) Commas for a list and after a opening greetingQuotations |
