Children’s
Literature: Peer Editing Sheet
Title of Piece:
_______________________________
Writer's Name: ______________________ Editor’s Name:______________________
Directions: Begin
this peer editing session simply by reading your partner's piece without
critiquing it. After you have read through the piece once, read each of the
following questions on this peer editing sheet. Keeping these questions in
mind, read your partner's piece again and answer the questions as you proceed.
Write your thoughts and ideas on this paper and on your partner's piece.
(1) Is your partner's piece guided by an overall theme,
message or issue? Identify that here:
(2) Does your partner's story flow and make sense? Note
particular examples of ideas or details that you think are really good.
(3)Are there any details or plot twists that you just do not
understand? If so, make a note of them and explain why you do not understand
them.
(4) Does your partner's piece contain spelling/grammar
errors? (This can be done on the paper.)
(5) Who is the intended audience? (Be specific about the
child’s age and reading level.)
Is this written appropriately for the intended reader? (Sentence
structure, word count, illustrations, etc.)
