HELP FEED THE POOR AND BUILD YOUR VOCABULARY


Today I have something that is both FUN & EDUCATIONAL.


I saw this on a blog, sorry I can't remember which one or I'd give credit!


I must warn you.....it is very addicting....especially if you are a word person like me!!


It also helps feed people!!!!

With a combination like that how can we lose?


So if you are a word lover like me and you want to build your vocabulary and you want to help the poor and hungry of this world give it a try.

Let me know how you do.

I've only gotten up to 40 so far but hope to increase my level.

Have fun AND be a blessing at the same time!!!


Addendum: I've done thousands of grains of rice......I told you it is addictive. My 40 score is the vocabulary level score on the bottom. The highest is 50 with most people not getting above 48.

I think this goes on and on and on...I stopped at 1030 grains of rice. It was fun, I kept trying to get more rice. I took latin in high school and I was amazed how that came back to , even more amazing that I can remember Latin but not things I did yesterday or a movie I watched last week!

That is very addicting! :) I could sit here all day and do this...

Myrna said...

OK, Susan, you've done it now! At least this addiction has a benefit to someone else! :-)

I did this a while back and it was fun and VERY addicting!(before we pulled the internet plug, I am at the library right now:)) I don't remember my score. I don't think it ever stops either.

OMGosh!! you are so right - it's very addicting. and am i right in that there's no ending - you just keep going. i finally had to stop because i have so much i need to get done around here. but so far, my score is 36 (can't quite break that 40 barrier) and i've donated 1620 grains of rice.

thanks for sharing this. if it's okay with you, i'd like to make this my link of the day for tomorrow.
