  • And more!  

http://www.frenchassistant.com

Students must register for this site.  It is a fun site, but not particularly academic.  It tests students’ knowledge of grammar and vocabulary by giving random quiz questions, such as “How do you say ‘blue’ in French?”  You cannot choose a specific category or skill to focus on, but the questions are varied.  It is a fun site and a good way to practice French vocabulary and grammar in a relaxed way.
