							| Yes, that works. You could also say "and please don �t erase anything."   Bruce |  27 Dec 2010

							| I would say: "use a correction pen instead of crossing out your mistakes" the word "ratures" means that the writing is not neat, that the pupil crossed out his mistakes... have a nice week!
