Celina should use a thesaurus to correct her essay. A thesaurus would provide her with synonyms for the words she used repeatedly, allowing her to replace them with more varied alternatives.
Mike should use a dictionary to correct his essay. A dictionary would provide him with the correct definitions of the words he used in the wrong part of speech, helping him use them accurately in his writing.
Toni should use a dictionary or a vocabulary book to correct her essay. These resources would provide her with the correct definitions of the words she used with unintended meanings, ensuring she uses them correctly in her writing.
Calina, 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 sentences, explain which reference source each student should use to correct their essay, and why.
