I am a second year teacher. The thing I did last year that seemed to work is that I focused on a couple of things. One time I would check for punctuation, or spelling, etc. I felt that if I checked for everything I would feel a bit overwelmed. I always had a writing rubric and the students saw what they would be graded on before the started. This worked out well because grammar was not always 100% of their writing grade.(I looked for transition words, paragraph style, and etc) I hope this helps
