Sentence-Level Error – “Control sentence-level error (grammar, punctuation, spelling)”(Brod).
I can and have formatted and made very good sentences when I have the brain power to do so. But I have learned a lot in this English class about making my voice more active rather than being to passive. As well as making my voice more of my voice over paraphrasing or quoting someone else’s ideas and experiences. This is something I still need to work on but have gotten better at throughout this semester.
this work sample above is from my first essay in this English class. if you notice the “such as__ ” in purple that is a comment from my professor about adding more to the sentence to make it help with my essay. I’ve been writing more compete sentences since like in my last essay.
My sentences this short snip from my last essay, shows how I have been able to expand my ideas in a more active voice in my essays. these sentences are complete sentences with almost no commas.
In my second essay when going back and rereading the comments left by my professor which are in pink font words. I needed to add more to my sentences to help with an active voice rather then just being very passive. You can see that I have come a long way. Base level sentences is still something I need to work on but I have improved a lot since the start of this class.
