Re: Excellent Site(?), Secondary English

[Doyle_Tony <tdoyle@MUHSD.K12.CA.US>]

When students do research on the Web, I tell them to look for certain
information on any page they plan to use as a source.  This site is missing
two crutial pieces of information:
1. The author's name and qualifications
2. The date the information was posted

I wouldn't recommend a site to teachers if I can't verify the authority or
currency of the information.  The site looks promising, but it actually
covers very few grammar rules, and since I'm not a grammarian I can't verify
the accuracy the information.  Without dates we don't know if the site is
just being constructed or if it has been up for a year waiting for the
author to complete his/her work.

Hey folks, I don't know whether this site has been mentioned yet, but
It's a great one to point your english teachers (secondary) to.

http://www.chompchomp.com/menu.htm

It's called Grammar Bytes, and it has an index of grammar terms,
interactive exercises, teacher & student handouts and worksheets
(downloadable in both html & Word 97 formats), grammar rules, etc.

An English Teacher's dream!!!!!
