Grade 5 · Writing · Lesson 32

Revise based on peer feedback

PEER FEEDBACK is one of the fastest ways to make a draft stronger. After hours staring at your own writing, you stop seeing it. A reader who comes in fresh notices the parts that drag, the sentences that confuse, and the ending that fizzles out — exactly the parts you cannot see anymore. Revision is not about doing what your friend says; it is about HEARING what they noticed, deciding what helps, and making your draft clearer and stronger while keeping YOUR voice.
