Editor in Chief® improves your child's grammar, punctuation, spelling,
capitalization, and attention to detail using a
standards-based thinking approach rather than drill
and practice. This effective method teaches students
to carefully analyze and edit stories that contain
errors in writing mechanics and story details.
The stories combine single skills (like
capitalization) with guided, gradual instruction and practice that is
ideal for younger learners.
The books and software both use the same
stories, errors, and rules. The difference is in the way students edit
the stories.
Students identify and click on
errors in each story. Then they select the category and specific rule
that applies to each error, prompting the software to correct the error.
On-screen instructions, hints, rules, and answers allow students to work,
learn, and succeed independently.
