[quote=Anonymous]I tell the third graders I work with that they should always have someone else edit/proofread their work if possible. It is normal for them to exchange papers with another student and help each other, and/or work with a teacher to edit/proofread. I always had my mom edit my high school and college writing, even though I'm a good writer. Even though I was in my thirties when I went to college. She was an editor by profession, her suggestions were always helpful. I can't imagine why not, although the changes/suggestions should be added with a red pen if possible so the writer can see how their writing would be changed, and also, if possible, go over it with them if you are suggesting anything more than proofreading for errors.[/quote]
