WitchHazel Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 ANH's post about punctuation reminded me of an online game I played recently. You may like to try this... level 1 is easy, so I encourage you to carry on with it... it get's more challenging. http://toys.usvsth3m.com/write/index.html?trackingcode=twitterenglish Interested to hear what you think...

LolaLayla Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 That could be addictive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Fab! I got all the way to the end! (But to reduce smugness, it did take me a few goes ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minnie&Moose Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Sadly my English is much better than that of my students' (and yes, I'm referring to more than one) - I'm spending the Bank Holiday reading Masters dissertation drafts and am fed up with all the basic grammatical and punctuation errors scattered throughout their drafts. Another hour of this and I shall be driven to drink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 I got to the end too (after a few attempts too ). The time limit made me panic . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Hubby failed level 1 three times and gave up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saronne Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 The music and speed is so distracting!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Ah that might explain why I got to the end then... I didn't realise there was any music as the sound on my iPad was switched off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitchHazel Posted August 26, 2013 Author Share Posted August 26, 2013 The music and speed is so distracting!! yes, you are right, that does have an impact. I'm goimg to try again tomorrow without the sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Got to level 6 but can't spell so no chance of finishing at that speed. Respect to the rest of you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janepie33 Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Whoo Hooo!! Got to the end after several attempts - with the distracting music in the background! Will get DS & DD to do it tomorrow. That will be interesting from the texting generation! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Glad that I have been warned about the music, because, I am very easily distracted by noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 Got there eventually. Turning the music off made a difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redhotchick Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I found that very difficult! I didn't have the sound on, but I did have the TV on. I realised it was stopping me from fully concentrating so paused it and then got to the end. Phew! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
