We will review the grammar topics that we covered in so far this year. This will count as a Level IV grade. Spend 5-10mins each night practicing using these links below. Make notes of things that you don't understand and any questions that you might have. Most questions on the test are multiple choice.

Make sure you visit each website at least once over the next 8 days. Much of the test will be multiple choice and 'application'. Make sure you 'know', 'understand', and can 'apply' your grammatical knowledge

Good luck :-)

Feel free to use the blog for questions as you review these topics.

ALWAYS ask yourselves... Why did we study this topic, and how does it make your writing better?
