Evaluate the drafted change
You had great leads. The opening sentences for each section started with a clear definition of what the section was about. The content is well organized and related to the topics. The Environmental print section had the most neutral tone, and i think you gave an overall well rounded picture of the different components of emergent literacy.

Some suggestions:

'''Hope this helps. Overall I think this is a great start, keep going!'''
 * I'm not sure if you need to have the subsections that you are not editing in your sandbox. I was confused at first when reading through because there was not much added to the first 3 sections, then when i saw the article you are adding to i realized these section were already there.
 * Not sure if you need to recap the articles you have read. I think you need to incorporate their findings into your writing instead of recapping (may want to speak with Professor about this)
 * You have great information in your writing, however you should be citing them. The way they come off now is like they are your ideas. We need to know where these ideas come from. For example in the "narrative skills" section you mentioned that a child's narrative skills can be supported by read alouds through conversations and discussion about the book; where did you get this information from? How do you know this? Cite where you got this information from.
 * in the alphabetic knowledge section you but the letter "T" like this: /T/. I think when you put it like that it refers to the sound and not the actual letter.
 * the sources that you did cite should be cited using the WIKI citing tool
 * Professor said we needed to cite 7 peer reviewed journals, so i think you still have some citations to add.

Thank you for the information. It was especially helpful to see the point about the citations and the alphabetic knowledge. I will work on the changes.
