Sponsored by The United Nations Food Program, this site will donate 10 grains of rice to hungry people for every grammatical question your student gets right. 10 grains may not sound like much, but it adds up as thousands of people use this site daily. One person at one sitting can donate 300 grains of rice just by answering 30 questions correctly.
Go to www.freerice.com
Once at the site, go to the SUBJECTS section at the top of the page and choose English Grammar.
There are also other subjects that may interest you personally. Enjoy! |

The Free Rice site makes extra sense considering the current hunger problem in Somalia.
Please give it a try. |

Why can't they just give the rice for me doing nothing? Seems pretty evil of them.
Hold food over someone's head threatening to let them starve to death unless someone else answers grammar questions correctly. Nice. |
