I looked through the writing materials available and they are fabulous and I can’t wait to use the resources off this site more in my classroom. I was wondering, what are some highly effective ways to teach elementary students how to revise with the help of a peer? Also, how do you make the difference between editing and revising clear; my students often end up helping each other with spelling rather than ‘growing’ and changing ideas (ie making the wrting more descriptive). I had some ways that worked well with older students (3rd, 4th, 5th) but the first and second graders in my classroom are often daunted by this task. How can I help scaffold the act of revising their own writing? Thanks for the wonderful resources available on this web site!
