Proofreading - What do I look for?
I can't guarantee what will be on the test. However, these are the skills listed in the 7th grade GLEs:

  • Commas to separate introductory words or phrases
  • Commas to set off direct quotes
  • Commas to separate nouns of direct address
  • Commas to separate coordinate adjectives
  • Semicolons to separate independent clauses
  • Colons to separate independent clauses
  • Pronoun-antecedent agreement
  • Comparatives and superlatives
  • Correct use of adverbs (adjectives vs. adverbs)
  • Double negatives
  • Misplaced or dangling modifiers

Remember: when you are correcting sentences, you want them to be clear (easy to read and understand) and concise (not wordy).
