30+ Grammar Girl Assignments for Your Next Class

Almost every month, Macmillan Learning editors create a new lesson plan on their Bedford Bits blog for high school and college English teachers who want to use the Grammar Girl podcast in class. They’ve amassed an impressive collection, which we are pleased to highlight below. 

The assignments are best used with Macmillan’s online learning platforms, LaunchPad and Achieve, because they give you access to ad-free podcasts and transcripts, but you can also use them with the publicly available, free Grammar Girl podcasts (available on our website and at Spotify and Apple Podcasts). 

Pick an assignment and get started, and let us know how it goes.
