GRAMMAR

[|Grammarman] offers online comics, with audio support for the text, that teach grammar topics. [|Road To Grammar] (different from the “Jr.” version) has a number of interactive quizzes. [|Touchstone] from Cambridge also has good activities if you go to books “3″ and “4.” [|Classzone’s Grammar Arcade] has many engaging games that reinforce grammar concepts. The link is a little strange — sometimes when you click on it you first get directed to Classzone’s main page. If that happens, just click on “California” and then click on “Go.” [|Brainpop] has a large collection of movies related to grammar. They’re closed-captioned, and also have quizzes. However, you do have to pay for a subscription. You can get a free trial, though. This is only one of two sites that I have reviewed on this blog that charges and that I recommend. [|The English Department in Valencia] has a huge collection of simple grammar activities. The British Council has a ton of [|grammar games]. I’m adding the [|Virtual Grammar Lab] to this list. It has over 2400 grammar activities, and teachers can create a free account so that they can track student progress. Center For Education and Training’s [|Flashed ESL] site. [|Interactive ESL Grammar Games] comes from ESL Games [|Animated Grammar tutorials] from Great Source. [|Movie Segments To Assess Grammar Goals] is a blog by Claudio Azevedo from Brazil. The blog shares grammar exercises connected to…movie segments. He has online video clips embedded in the blog along with the exercises. Unfortunately, it’s unlikely his blog’s host, blogspot, is going to make it through many school content filters, but it would be easy enough to get the videos through Netflix or upload them to a site like [|Edubogs TV] so they can be seen at school.
