  1. Reading your first paragraph, I like the sound of your sentence sentence, your use of ‘monstrous’ works well and some of your points develop well.

    Despite this, you must proof read and separate your sentences via clauses.

  2. Still some room to go!

    Targets:
    Be strict with paragraph length

    Did you know that you are about 200 words away from your minimum word limit? Which ideas will you develop? Why?

  3. Still a little way to go.

    Targets
    1) Check your use of homophones in spelling – have you used there, their and they’re correctly?
    2) re-read your final sentence – do you mean argued ‘for’ or ‘against’?
    3) Check paragraph 2 – is it only teens that have melatonin? I think not.
    4) have one final read of your sentence structures – where might you be more concise? Where might you have used the wrong preposition or repeated yourself? How might you make yourself clearer?

  4. Expository Writing achieved!
