Pink: basic conventions (punctuation (other than commas), capitalization, etc.) fluency

Yellow: things that are in your editing section: sentence structure (fragment/run-on, comma splice, commas), dialogue format, verb tense, etc.
}Take a look at your first short story
Most likely you have some similar issues (especially punctuation, sentence structure, and grammar), so check your perspective story for those.
I will be grading this one more critically than the first one, so REALLY look at your story.
}All parts of the story
Make sure your story has all aspects of a plot chart (especially the falling actions/resolution)
Universal theme
}Show don’t Tell
Make sure you have LOTS of details!
}Revising sometimes means taking things out that don’t work.
}Fluency- make sure your story SOUNDS good and that sentences and words flow
}Edit/Proof Read
Print out your story if it will help you check for errors more.
}Meet with me if you would like: make sure you have a purpose in our meeting…
