Learn Vocabulary, Help Poor People
Hello Students!
I want to repeat some great information that Nafis left in a comment:
You can go to http://www.freerice.com and play a game that helps you learn vocabulary. Each time you are able to answer a question, you “get” some rice as a prize. That rice will be given to poor people around the world! The more you play and the more you learn, the more rice will be sent. Everyone please give it a try!
Also, go the the Free Rice sister site at http://www.Poverty.com to learn more about world hunger, related problems, and solutions to those problems. Be sure to watch the map on Poverty.com for a few minutes and think about what this really means. (Then go back to Free Rice and improve your vocabulary!)

This is a miserable truth that one person shown by his or her photo on the display dies every three and a half seconds. It’s hard to believe that about 25.000 people die every day of hunger or hunger-related causes. This site gives me a chance to think about poverty around the world.
And the vocabulary game FreeRice, I think this is an interesting way to help hungry people. I learned vocabulary and donated 1020 grains of rice today to UN World Food Program by playing the game. And I told this web site to my friends, too.
Thank you for telling us this great web site, Nafis.
Thank you for providing many opportunities to think about a variety of things and helpful ways to learn English on your blog, Teacherjoe.
