Correct sentence: The chicks peep after the pecking hen.

What to fix:

  • Start the sentence with a capital letter: "The" instead of "the".
  • Put a period at the end of the sentence to finish it.
  • The words are okay, but you can make the meaning clearer with different word order.

Other clear ways to say it:

  • The chicks peep after the hen pecks.
  • The chicks peep behind the pecking hen.
  • The chicks peep behind their mother hen.

Short explanation for a 6-year-old: Use a big letter at the start and a dot at the end. If you want to be clearer, say what happens first and what happens after, for example: "The chicks peep after the hen pecks," which means the baby chicks make little sounds after the hen pecks the ground.
