Are these sentences well written?

Hello. I signed up for Japanese classes and I'm doing a word ordering exercise, but I'm not sure if I've done it well. If someone could tell me if it is right or wrong and, if applicable, correct it, I would appreciate it.

- sore wa watashi no kagi desu
- kono wa Mira-san no jisho desu
- sono wa dare no kasa desu ka
- are wa sensei no tsukue desu
 
the word after kono/sono/ano is noun (unless retracted which you'll learn later), so your 2nd and 3rd sentence are incorrect.

then it would be...

- kono jisho wa Mira-san no desu
- sono kasa wa dare no desu ka

Is correct now??
I think that it is correct, I know basic Japanese, I thought that the second sentence could also be said like
- sono kasa wa dare no kasa desu ka
but I don't know which is correct.... after checking with chatgpt and some other tool it seems both are correct, but yours (sono kasa wa daero no desu ka) sounds more natural.

btw, a good tool for checking grammar is: https://sapling.ai/lang/japanese
but it requires you to write with hiragana/katakana/kanji.
In Linux you can use Fcitx5 + Mozc to write in japanese while on Windows you can to add the japanese language to the keyboard settings.

Hello, Ryzen111. Could you please update this to its newest version? The devs forgot to renew the update log.
