This website offers a fun way for students to better acquaint themselves with verbs, allowing students to go at their own pace and be corrected immediately if any mistakes are made. The game format adds a level of competition to further push the students, but not too hard since it is merely a game to get 15 questions right, before they get that amount wrong.

Education 3508: Introduction to ME!
Salutations interweb;
As per my first assignment in Education 3508 here follows is a brief introduction about yours truly. Hm, where to begin? Well lets start with the basics shall we? Originally I hail from Calgary, Alberta and will be turning 21 on September 28th. I am an avid supporter of all things to do with the arts and I do mean everything: from film, theater, music, literature and all those other fun forms of art. I am all for them. When it comes to music I listen to to ALOT of different stuff all over the map. I prefer not to pigeon-hole myself into listening to only one genre of music and am a fan of everything from Wu Tang Clan to The Beatles, Tom Waits to Miles Davis, Beethoven to Benni Banassi, all the way from White Zombie to Johnny Cash. Again, I enjoy MANY different kinds of music. Also in regards to music I am a drummer of seven years, enjoy singing very much, and am currently trying to learn the guitar. I'm also an enormous movie buff, owning approximately 300 movies on dvd, so if you ever wanna chill and catch a flick you know who to call ha! This is my third year at the University of Lethbridge and I'm very stoked for this year to say the least. I'm incredibly proud to have dominated Education 2500 and look forward so much for PS1 and then on to PS2 ^_^. I am a drama major who loves to act, but my dream in life, aside from being one heckuva teacher, is to one day direct atleast one movie... a horror movie. In closing I have to say as I listen to the album, you should all check out the new Scars On Broadway release. If you are a fan of S.O.A.D. you should love Daron Malakian and John Dolmayan's stuff.
