Listen and write
On this website you can listen and then do a dictation.
First listen to the whole text at once. Then you click to play the dictation and start writing. When your word is right it will appear and if the option auto repeat is on, you will listen to the same track once and again until you finish writing it. After that, go to the following track.
If you can't guess the word, click on hint and you'll get some help.
The story I have chosen is a news story from VOA News and it has a 10 level.
There's another option that allows you to complete sentences instead of writing everything down. Try clicking where it says 'To word'.
Try it!!

If you need some help with the writing skill, why don’t you have a look at this website?
It has been designed for university students, but you can get information on how to use linking words (with an exercise), how to write paragraphs or how to use punctuation. You also have information on how to write essays, reports, formal letters and some samples of them.

The demonstrations began on Sunday May 15, when thousands of people gathered in several cities in Spain to demand what they called 'real democracy' and protesters have vowed to occupy central squares in several Spanish cities until the May 22 local elections.
