Edit with me
Project a sentence with three mistakes and edit it together, thinking aloud: "Hmm, does a name need a capital?" Then kids edit their own sentence with a partner. Watching you catch mistakes shows them what good editors look for.
Why it works: showing first, practicing together, then letting kids try alone is the "gradual release" model teachers have relied on for decades (Pearson and Gallagher, 1983).
