Spelling, punctuation, and accent mark count toward grading.  Misspelled, wrong tense, or wrong form of verbal conjugation (- full points worth).  Missing article, conjunction, or preposition (-1/2 point). Missing accents from the words you have been exposed to during the chapter, punctuation–periods, capital letters, upside-down exclamation or question marks–If needed (-1/4 points). Missing a complete sentence (-1 point) per sentence.   Accent Marks Please write me a short message, in parenthesis, next to the word that needs it, for instance: You need to write  ¡Mi mamá comprará el juguete mañana para Iván! You will write it like (upside-down exclamation mark) Mi mama (accent on the 2nd a) comprara (accent on the second a) el juguete manana (tilde over the 1st n) para Ivan (accent on a)!
