Inma Alcázar's insight:
Wikiduca is the project of two creative Spanish young minds, David Anthony and Anton Popovine, who decided to work on this educational browser-game to help children learn English vocabulary through videogames.
Starting from the idea that children love video games, fantasy worlds and solving mysteries, David and Anton propose exciting quests and minigames for them. As children increase their vocabulary words, they gain more powers and new missions within the game. The key point is "learning by playing".

Are your students struggling with some of the rules of English language? Then, you should recommend them to visit this website. They will find great infographics there which may help them to understand the language. The only problem is that the site is American and the rules may not always be appropriate for British English.
