REVISING FOR IDEASQuestions to ask yourself as you revise:1. Do I have a clear topic sentence that is relevant to the topic

I’m supposed to be discussing?2. Do I have at least 4 sentences of supporting details?3. Are all of my sentences relevant? (That means do my

sentences all have to do with the topic?)4. Do I have enough supporting details to fully explain my idea?5. Do my paragraphs have interesting information to share? Or

are they boring?6. Are my ideas clear? Or is the meaning of the paragraph hard

to grasp?

YOUR ASSIGNMENT: REVIEW YOUR CLASSMATE’S PAPER FOR IDEAS1. Directly on your classmate’s paper, you will be marking

GRAMMAR and SPELLING. 2. Then you will help your classmate revise their paper for

IDEAS by answering the following questions on a separate sheet of paper.

3. When you are done, you will rate your classmate on the rubric and then staple this paper to the BACK of their draft.

The music was composed as a drinking song for an 18th-century London social club. The words were written in 1814 by Francis Scott Key to commemorate a battle. And on March 3, 1931, "The Star-Spangled Banner" officially became the national anthem of the United States. Ever since then, people have been complaining that the tune is unsingable and the lyrics are offensive. In response to these complaints, a bill was recently filed in Congress to replace "The Star-Spangled Banner" with "America the Beautiful" as our national anthem.

I believe for a number of reasons, that this bill deserves wide support.

Those reasons include: it is an amazing song, it does not have offensive language, and it reflects the American ideals.

Star-Spangled Banner
