Short reading for Wed, and grammar links

For tonight, read How to Avoid Grammar Mistakes: RTFM, Baby by Catherine Prendergrast, a quick essay that will help you with so many of the grammar and usage issues you may have throughout your high school and college careers, and beyond. We'll discuss this in class tomorrow.

A related document you might be interested in: the Uni English departments statement on our philosophy of grammar instruction.

And for all your grammar, punctuation, and usage needs, I recommend Grammar Girl, the University of North Carolina Writing Center's Tips and Tools, and Purdue's OWL. (Feel free to share your favorite grammar and usage site, if you have one, and I'll post those as well.)
