Bookworms and angry sunflowers

There’s lots of cool, fun stuff on the net – and much of it is educational too.  Here’s a link to a bookworm game that looks a little childish in the graphics, but it is every bit as challenging as the BOGGLE lexical game.

I found this game at this site: http://angryflower.com/ apostropheposter

This cartoon has Bob the angry flower yelling at us for using the apostrophe incorrectly so often.  Enlarge it and take a look at is, it’s really good!  Here’s a link to a bigger picture http://www.journalismcareers.com/guidetotheapostrophe.shtml

At the same site are good excercises for all sorts of things : editing, proofreading, touchtyping – have a browse around.
