Highlighting Mistakes

Sometimes when I return your work, you will see that some of the words are
highlighted.

The highlighted words need to be corrected.

If the highlight is
GREEN, the mistake is a grammar mistake.

If the highlight is
BLUE, the mistake is a spelling mistake.

if it is
PINK, it is a prepositon mistake.

Please correct the mistake and send me the correction.

Why do I do this?

Because the brain remember things better when it words hard.

It also remembers things we do with our hands better than things we do with our eyes.

If I send you the correction and you read it, your brain says, "Okay.  I understand.  That was a mistake."

But if I make you figure out what was wrong and then type the correct word, your brain says, "Wow.  This is hard.  But I understand.  That was wrong.  And this is right."

And your brain will remember.

I will not this with everything.

And I will do this with

1.  Simple mistakes

and

2.  Mistakes that you make over and over and over.

I hope this method helps you!  Let me know if it does!
