Grammar Girl Podcasts and Online Grammar Exercises

A colleague of mine just told me about this website that has podcasts about grammar.

Extra credit to any student who checks out this site and downloads podcasts to listen to on their iPod. Bring in your iPod and share the grammar podcast with me to receive your points.

If you find one that is relevant to our coursework we can listen to it in class.

Happy listening! Go Grammar Girl!

I also found some online grammar exercises you can use to practice what we've been working on in class. Feel free to check them out on your own. Most are interactive and will let you know how you're doing as you go along. They can be great practice for you.
