It is very important to have the basics in relation to punctuation, spelling and grammar as this allows the reader to be able to understand the message you are trying to get across. By having these skills, it makes it easier for the reader to read your work and having a better understanding of it. It is very important for a teacher to have these schools to be able to pass them on to the student so they can learn it at a young age and will be able to carry that with them throughout their life.

Punctuation and Spelling

There are many different types of punctuation and depending on what punctuation is used in a sentence can change the meaning of the message that is being made. Punctuation is important as it allows the reader to be able to understand the message that is being said. When a person is writing something, the use of different punctuation allows the reader to pick up on the different tones and meanings of the message. In books, the punctuation the author uses allows the reader to understand if someone is speaking or understand what is happening in the situation.

Spelling is also important, as there are many words that are pronounced the same but spelt different, such as there, their and they’re. Hence depending on how the word is spelt depends on the definition of the words; therefore it is important to know the correct spelling of the word you want to use to get across the right message.

Grammar

Grammar is also very important to have when writing an essay because without having the correct grammar, the sentences won’t make sense. If a sentence doesn’t have the correct grammar, it can have a completely different meaning to what is intended. To have the correct grammar, it is important to use the correct punctuation to completely ensure that the sentence makes sense.

Sentences and paragraphs

When writing essays or long passages, it is important to write in paragraphs as it allows the piece of writing to flow and not sound like a long story. There are different types of paragraphs such as an introduction, conclusion, and body of the writing. By having paragraphs, this makes it clear what part is the introduction of the essay and what part is the final conclusion. In the paragraphs, it is important to write in full sentences throughout the paragraphs and essay to allow the essay to ‘flow’ and allows the reader to have a proper understanding of what is being said. By writing in full sentences, this ensures the reader is able to comprehend the message that is being said.

Overall, when writing essays it is important to have correct punctuation, spelling and grammar throughout, as well as full sentences and paragraphs to ensure the correct message it being made through the essay and not being misunderstood by the reader.
