6th Grade Writing Prompts

Jo Said:

Hey, i have a quick SAT question.?

We Answered:

Besides your typos, it is not a bad essay. I would suggest that you try not to use worlds like very or really. Adjectives show a lack of vocabulary and weaken your statement. Get a word a day calendar- you'll fit right in with those CIT kids.

Ellen Said:

How can I create a "Twilight Zone" themed meal?

We Answered:

Make everything black and white.

Ralph Said:

Give me something to write about ? Then grade me?

We Answered:

I want you to write about what you think.

I shall ask you to think about where you live, and what you think of this year's elections.
Do you think that you have NO LIMITS AND NO EXCUSES?

Why not write about the excuses that you made in the past but will not accept now because you are better.

Can you tell me about your teachers and which ones you think are the best and why? Can you tell me if you ever wanted to be a teacher?

Now, get writing and teach me something about you!

GOD bless us always in all ways.

First of all, you have many spelling errors in your paragraphs. You might want to use spell-check. (Not trying to be rude) Second biggest mistake is that Abraham Lincoln was our president for the Civil war, not the Revolutionary war. And actually, after you delve into history of the Civil War, you will come to find that the war wasn't about slavery at all.....at least not in the sense that most people seem to believe that it was. Actually, Abraham Lincoln had no intentions of freeing slaves during his Presidency....the Civil War was in full swing, and had been going on for a long time before the issue of freeing slaves was ever brought up. The only reason that he did free them was because the soilders and citizens of the North weren't happy about fighting the South any longer. To them, the war had lost it's appeal. Most Northerners had family that was in the South, and they didn't want to be at war with them. They started asking themselves why they were even fighting. If the south wanted to go their own way and form their own country....let them. Abraham Lincoln didn't want this to happen. The soilders had lost motivation for fighting.....so he gave them an incentive. He said, "We are not only restoring a great nation, we are righting a wrong that has gone unpunished in our mist." Freeing the slaves was a strategic move on his part to reunify his troops, and give them a reason to "continue the good fight."
Sorry I ranted on for so long....I'm an American History Teacher, with a passion for the Civil War Era. Besides those slight errors though, I believed that your essay was quite good.
Your score would be a soild 4 with minor corrections
