				| I am doing peer-editing with my students, and am looking for some not so perfect 5 paragraph essays online that I can print out. Does anyone know any good websites to find these essays? Thank you |  |

 Write them yourself and then they will all contain 100% of whatever it is you want to be in them.  Do not spend hours looking for a writing sample, listening comp., etc. when you can do it yourself.

				| How about setting 'writing an essay' for homework. I'll bet most of the kids will just download some guff from the internet, and that should be enough material to keep you going for ages. Good luck.

 Well, they are going to be peer editing their partner's work, but wanted them to get some practice first with some sample 'bad' essays.
