Study Notes
Story Editing
- Sentence 1 - "Romano" should not be capitalized because it is a last name, and only the first letter of the first name should be capitalised.
- Sentences 2 and 3 - Combine sentences 2 and 3 using a conjunction to improve the flow by making it clear that the two brothers did similar things.
- Sentence 5 - Add commas after hide-and-go-seek, tag, and capture the flag because "hide-and-go-seek" and "capture the flag" are considered phrases and should be separated from "tag" using commas.
- Sentence 10 - Add a smooth transition phrase to connect sentence 9 about the brothers' strength to sentence 10.
- Sentence 11 - Rearrange the sentence for clarity and improve the flow by making sure the subject of the sentence is at the beginning, and the action follows.
- Sentence 12 - Replace "said" with "says" because the sentence is in the present tense.
- Sentence 17 - Replace "fathers'" with "father's" because "father's" refers to one person's possession.
- Sentence 18 - Replace "ride" with "rode" because the sentence describes a past event.
