Feed the hungry and increase your vocabulary at the same time

my kids have been really having fun with this

www.freerice.com

I had one student that asked "what do I get out of this"

I said

"increased vocabulary and the satisfaction that you are helping world hunger"

Thats just me tonight for a short while.
I got as far as level 48, but I didnt stay there long. I mostly hovered around 43-45.

EVERYONE was playing this game at work today.
