Do You Need Help With Your Grammar?

Welcome back to the second semester of school!  To me, the spring semester always seems the busiest.  There are many school and library activities coming up on which I'll post about later, but for today I wanted to introduce you to a website you may find helpful. 


Grammarly is an automated proofreader.  You simply copy and paste the text of your research paper, book report, etc. onto the site and it will check for over 150 types of grammatical mistakes, provide vocabulary suggestions to enhance your writing, and check for any issues with plagarism, too. 

You must become a member to fully use the site and there is a charge for joining, but you may find it worth your while to take a look.  I certainly wish I had known about this to use with my own daughter.



P.S.  Some of you 8th graders currently working on your research paper may find this site very helpful.

P.S.S.  Don't forget...if you have out an overdue book and return it prior to this Wednesday afternoon, I will waive your fine.
