Expectations
During class, I will present mini-lessons on different grammar terms, concepts, and rules. Then, I will give you time in class to "play" with what you learned or to "apply" your new knowledge to improve your own writing through thoughtful revision and careful editing. Don't worry about memorizing all of the terms, concepts, and rules. I won't give you any more dreadful grammar tests.

Instead, I expect you to to do the following:
 * Use this wiki, any other helpful website, or a grammar book to find information needed to correct mistakes and improve conventions in your written work.
 * Create your own personal proofreading checklist.
 * Turn in completed proofreading checklists that will take the place of the dreadful grammar tests.
