Eye halve a spelling checker
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.
And weight four it two say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.
Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My checker tolled me sew.
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My checker tolled me sew.

The kids did pretty well, although it was very clear what they were struggling with. Before they left, we talked about their struggles and the things they needed clarification on- Looks like I'll need to concoct a mini-lesson on subject/verb agreement and verb tense! I left them with the fact that they are smarter than Microsoft Word. When I typed up these documents, Word hardly caught any mistakes! They were shocked, so that turned out to be a great take-away.
As for me, I am having trouble with my conventions now after having to type up so many bad examples! I was seriously going cross-eyed and I felt mentally exhausted afterwards... But it was totally worth it :)
