Celina, Mike, and Toni each have an essay returned by the teacher with a request for edits. Celina's essay is returned because she used the same words over and over again. Mike's is returned because he often used the wrong part of speech when he tried to use more interesting vocabulary. Toni's essay is returned because she used words with definitions that did not match her intended meaning.
In three to five sentences, explain which reference source each student should use to correct their essay, and why.

Celina should use a thesaurus to find appropriate synonyms so she can vary her wording without repeating the same words. Mike should consult a grammar/usage guide (or a dictionary that lists parts of speech) so he can pick the correct form—noun, verb, adjective, etc.—when he tries fancier vocabulary. Toni should use a dictionary to check exact definitions and make sure each word matches the meaning she intends.
