Perhaps no topic generates more discussion in the world of teaching writing than grammar. Can we teach it? Should we teach it? How do we teach it? Well, this page is designed by those who believe we can and should teach it, and the following are links to sites that offer some resources on how to do so. Some of the sites offer quizzes; others allow students to research a certain aspect of grammar, such as restrictive and nonrestrictive elements.
