[quote=Anonymous]Just keep marking off all their misspellings, grammar issues, punctuation issues. That's how kids learn. Remind them that many people will in fact judge you for your spelling and grammar and punctuation, even on Twitter and Facebook. (my educated friends certainly do.) I know it must be really frustrating for you, but you have an opportunity to make a real impact. We had a soccer ref over the weekend who made the games into teaching moments. He was very patient with the kids, thoroughly explained each call, had them redo any throw-ins or other things that didn't go right the first time. We got a little impatient (the games ran long) but I think the kids really learned from him. [/quote]
