1) Describe what your peer did rather than pass judgment
ie. Instead of saying “it’s good”, say something like “you used a wide variety of sentence
structures that made it more interesting to listen to you”
2) Praise
       Tell your peer what they did well!
I think you used a lot of good details
I liked when you used the word ______
My favorite part was ________ because…

Stay positive
