I've been getting alot of requests for stuff form the textbook that aren't grammar points. For example, Writing Plus activites. What are these classified as on the site?

Basically, they aren't classified as anything on the site. The textbook areas on the site are based upon the questionable grammar introduced in the textbooks, not a specific part of learning. However, in the upper-right hand side of every activity page, are the parts of learning that particular activity practices.
Let me break down the units in the textbook real quick. Each unit is broken down into: reading, listening, writing, speaking and a multi-section (practices various parts of learning at the same time). I made the choice when building the JHS section of Englipedia to focus on the grammar because I was trying to find a way to link all the JHS textbooks together and grammar seemed the 'Rosetta Stone' that allowed me to link all the textbooks together. While 'parts of learning' are equally important, I felt like ALTs would mainly be looking for activities specific to a certain grammar point. However, because I thought the parts of learning were also important, every activity includes which part(s) of learning is focused on.
Just because the textbooks don't have these 'Writing Plus' activities specifically in textbook section of the site, it doesn't mean that it can't be added.
What are you ideas in adding these sections, simply having a hyperlinked 'Writing Plus' button at the end of every unit on the textbook pages? I'm open for suggestions...

Any chance anyone can write up how to play Jeopardy for the general games section? I'm not aware of that TV show being screened/popular in Aus. Thanks!
