Notes 1. Users of standard English would prefer "well" in place of "good." 2. I would not count it as wrong if students marked "Well" as an adverb. I'm saving it to be counted as an interjection. 3. This sentence is awkward as a result
of too much ellipsis -- "It's a one-story house with five rooms." I would
not, however, comment on the sentence in the student's writing. When the
student gets to S / V / C patterns, he or she will see that, as is, the
pattern is "It is rooms." At that level of analysis, if the student did
not see it for him or herself, I would point out that the sentence doesn't
work well because the subject is singular and the predicate noun is plural.
