Peer Editing

Hey guys! I got some ideas for Peer Editing from the workshop I attended. The presenter suggested that we just concentrate on one convention at a time. Let's say you wanted to start with capitalization. That week all you would look for is capitalization. The next week you could do capitalization then say punctuation.
I was thinking about a variation of this concept. I'm going to try it out in my room and will let you know how it goes. I'm going to have a 2-3 students at different "stations" around the room. One of the teams will check the papers for punctuation. The next for capitalization and so on. When the kids have been through the rotation them the kids who were the "capitalization experts or punctuation experts, etc." could go around to the different stations and the kids who have had their papers checked could then be the experts.
