Free Rice


Some people get hooked on phonics. I'm hooked on free rice. Freerice.com is a website with an interactive vocabulary game and an admirable goal of donating 20 grains of rice for each vocab question you answer correctly.

It's pretty simple with multiple choice questions for vocabaulary definitions. What's fun is for each question you get correct, the next question gets harder. If you answer wrong, the next question is easier.


Before you know it you'll be playing the game and will have donated 1000's of grains of rice.

According to the site, Free Rice has two goals:

1- Provide English vocabulary to everyone for free.
2- Help end world hunger by providing rice to hungry people for free.

This is possible due the sponsors who advertise on the site. The donations are made to the United Nations World Food Programme. Learn more about where the rice goes by clicking here.
