Deadline #8 HW # 5
Grammar Assignment
The grammar assignment I read was about poof reading. I got some good tips, and of course I'm going to share. 1Read your work backwards, one sentence at a time. 2 Read your work out loud, that way it easier to find your errors. 3 Always print out your work that way you can proofread off of paper, your more likely find your errors on paper. 4 Let your work sit for a while then come back then proofread. That way you have fresh eyes, and mind. 5 Last have someone else proofread your work, because you are going to miss something.
The assignment helped me a lot. I tend to have a lot of mistakes, every time.

Reading your work backwards one sentence at a time seems a little bit awkward to me. Did it really help? I know from experience that reading your work out loud greatly improves your grammar skills. It has always helped me when I don't have a spellchecker around!
