The questions following the scenarios will address planning and prewriting. A rough draft will follow the planning and prewriting questions. The rough draft will be divided into two sections. The first section will have errors that require revision such as the exclusion of a sentence that does not belong or two sentences that need to be combined. The second section of the rough draft will contain embedded errors in usage or mechanics. Items following this section will refer to underlined words or groups of words in the section of the rough draft and will require students to choose the answer which represents correct usage or mechanics. In some cases the underlined words will contain no error and the correct answer will be “as it is.”
