Napoleon? You can come out now...

Of late, LaMai is becoming more and more fearful each time she clicks open her e-mail inbox. In fact, LaMai gets very very scared - no - frustrated, perplexed, tired, loony, exhausted, pulling-the-hair-out bonkers, AND very very scared - when she reads an e-mail that a parent took some serious time to write, but the message, subjected to the sensible rules of the e-mail grammar radar, has caused said grammar radar to overheat, shake, go hayware, burn and explode to pieces of matzo meal sending Napoleon for cover before LaMai has finished reading it.

So, a gift to the bloggy readership: some fabu grammar websites for students and parents that LaMai visits frequently (because she is human and make many error and embarasses sheself too) -

Daily Grammar

Daily Grammar's Lesson Archive (dude, like, homeschoolers use this stuff and I didn't even know about it)

The Blue Book of Grammar and Punctuation test (Try it! You will really like it!)

When you are finished with the above, go get a copyediting job on the MediaBistro job board.
