Spelling Quiz

This is a neat online spelling quiz with many online options that I saw on the Missouri site. It is “cute” and would need to be presented as such for adults.

Interactive Grammar

The Guide to Grammar and Writing

Is sponsored by the Capital Community College Foundation. This grammar resource site has links to interactive quizzes and some really good PowerPoint presentations, one of which addresses the basic structure of good paragraph. The authors got a little carried away with animations and sounds, but the instruction is worth it.
