Task
Your task is to work together with your partner to complete the webquest. You will then choose one of the "Crazy Eights" to teach to the class using any medium you chose.
Process
- Read through ALL the Instructions below.

- Each member of the pair will visit ALL the sites listed for their assigned part of grammar, under the "Resources" section below.
- Each member of the group will take notes about their assigned part of grammar. Remember to keep track of the URLs for the sites you visit. These notes will be turned into your teacher at the end of the activity.
- Each member of the group will take AT LEAST 1 On-Line Quiz OR do 1 On-Line Activity. Whenever possible, group members SHOULD do DIFFERENT quizzes or activities.

Whatever your group selects should include the definition AND the important points your group agreed upon. You MUST give AT LEAST 3 examples of proper usage.
