We describe the AGReE system, which takes user-submitted passages as input and automatically generates grammar practice exercises that can be completed while reading. Multiple-choice practice items are generated for a variety of different grammar constructs: punctuation, articles, conjunctions, pronouns, prepositions, verbs, and nouns. We also conducted a large-scale human evaluation with around 4,500 multiple-choice practice items. We notice for 95 of items, a majority of raters out of five were able to identify the correct answer and for 85 among the choices. Finally, the error analysis shows that raters made the most mistakes for punctuation and conjunctions.
