I wanted to find resources for reading as I am apart of the English Department at my school. We are always looking for resources to share with each other in our meetings. I came across this resource and found the grammar section. Many topics are presented such as contradictions, semi colons, sentences, etc... What really caught my eye were the videos towards the bottom of the page. Here they have videos that explain the differences between words that sound the same but have different meanings. They use toys and action sequences to explain which are very funny! Each of the grammar lessons have unique learning techniques, whether users need to select correct choices or simply view pictures that help represent the learning. I could see using or providing the examples given in many lessons.

Khan Academy is a resource that can be used to preteach, reteach, and teach students and adults. It spans many subjects areas and topics. In my school our math and ELA teachers use the online lessons for students to practice (and take tests) related to subjects / concepts being taught. It can be used to flip the classroom by assigning lessons for students to view and participate in at home prior to class the next day. As an interventionist, I sometimes use it with my students to pre or reteach content students struggled with in their classes. I included a link to a parts of speech lesson.
