Week 1 - Wednesday
####
1. yesterday nathan and eric snowboards for 3 hours
Errors:
- "yesterday" should be capitalized at the beginning of the sentence.
- "nathan and eric" should have proper capitalization (names are proper nouns).
- "snowboards" is incorrect verb form — it should be
"snowboarded" because the action happened in the past (yesterday).
Corrected Sentence:
> Yesterday, Nathan and Eric snowboarded for 3 hours.
Explanation:
- Capitalize the first word of the sentence and names.
- Use past tense ("snowboarded") to match "yesterday."

2. no my birthday is not in september its in may
Errors:
- "no" should be capitalized and followed by a comma.
- "my birthday" should start with a capital letter if it's the beginning of a sentence.
- "september" and "may" should be capitalized (they are months).
- "its" is missing an apostrophe — it should be
"it's", which is a contraction of "it is."
- Missing punctuation: need a period or exclamation mark at the end.
Corrected Sentence:
> No, my birthday is not in September; it's in May.
Alternative (more natural):
> No, my birthday is not in September. It's in May.
Explanation:
- Capitalize the first word and proper nouns (September, May).
- Use "it's" instead of "its" — "its" without an apostrophe means possession, but here we mean "it is."
- Use appropriate punctuation (comma after "No", semicolon or period to separate clauses).

3. maniac magee is won of the novel's we will read this year
Errors:
- "maniac magee" should be capitalized — it’s a title.
- "won" is incorrect — should be
"one" (meaning "one of").
- "the novel's" is wrong — possessive form doesn't make sense here. Should be
"the novels".
- "we will read" should be
"we will read" (correct), but better as
"that we will read" for clarity.
- "this year" is fine, but needs to follow properly.
Corrected Sentence:
> *Maniac Magee* is one of the novels we will read this year.
Explanation:
- Capitalize book titles: *Maniac Magee*.
- "Won" → "one" (typo/word confusion).
- "Novel's" → "novels" (plural, not possessive).
- Use correct grammar and article agreement.
