Additional grammar practice; searchable grammar topics in the Global Library

I am a French teacher, so my examples below are French-specific, but I imagine that this request is applicable to all languages. I am glad that grammar is imbedded in lessons, as it should be, but there are times when I would like students to do a few grammar review activities (for example, le passé composé of regular verbs). So far, I have not been able to find activities in Lingco that allow this. In my opinion, this would be a great addition, particularly if activities could be scaffolded at the novice and intermediate levels. In addition, it would be helpful if I could search the Global Library for specific grammar topics, such as "present tense of -ir verbs" or "passé composé avec être."

Thank you, Ryan. I am aware of these grammar lessons, but these concepts need additional exercises for student practice. This is what I am hoping can eventually be added to Lingco. At this point, I need to create my own additional practice exercises or use materials from other sources. The same can be said for just about any grammar point (such as "present tense of -ir verbs" or "imparfait.")

Hi Thomas! We do have some solely grammar review content in the Global Library. They will be 'lessons' in Lingco, which are currently not assignable - students will just be able to review and practice within the lesson without worrying about being graded. If you search the Global Library for "passé composé" and filter to only show lessons, you'll find two grammar lessons that will have integrated practice at the end of the lesson.
