As seen on other posts, threads, and comments some plimates like to go about correcting the spelling and grammer. Be witty, try to create sentences with spelling, grammar; and punctuation errors that you think none of the other's will catch. You might even try and hide blatant errors near catastrophically bad one's in an attempt to divert attention from your devious little tricks.

Did I get 'em all, mrp?

My 8 year old is a phonetical speller... drives me absolutly CRAZY! The 11-year-old doesn't never use the semicolin; I don't now why. The forth grader - he loves to right but hates to reviese so I'm allways editting his stuff. As for the toddler? Don't even get me started - he can't even rememember to dot his i's, and cross his tees. (but at lease he doesnt cross his eyes and dot his tees)]]>http://www.plime.com/education/f/4023/1/rss2_0.rss#q18http://www.plime.com/education/f/4023/1/rss2_0.rss#q18education <![CDATA[pocksucket @ 4/24/2008 4:37:55 PM]]>« unzercharlie : *punch*Ouch!

Eye halve a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.

Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.

As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.

Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew.
