Google has lauched an update to their spell checking (in documents and presentations) that "grows and adapts with the web, instead of relying on a fixed dictionary. This update has a few big advantages over traditional spell checkers: 1. Suggestions are contextual. For example, the spell checker is now smart enough to know what you mean if you type “Icland is an icland.” 2. Contextual suggestions are made even if the misspelled word is in the dictionary. If you write “Let’s meat tomorrow morning for coffee” you’ll see a suggestion to change “meat” to “meet."

Do your students need to practice with grammar and punctuation? Quill provides worksheets for students in Grades 1 - 8 that have spelling and grammar errors. Students have to correct the errors. Quill corrects the papers, showing students what they did correctly, or what needs to be corrected.
Create your own classroom, provide students a code to sign-in, and pick your assignments. Students work at their pace and you can view their work through the dashboard.
As Richard Byrne states in this post "Having the pre-made activities at your disposal and having the opportunity to quickly see how your students did on each activity will free up some of your time."
There is a video that explains the site in more detail, or you may go directly the the website: http://www.quill.org/
