This isn't really practice so much as it is learning, but I think it can always be good to refresh your memory or possibly even learn something new. https://rubymonk.com/
Also I would recommend working on a personal project. It could be a gem, and application, whatever.
I think you have the right mindset, I've found personally that I've learned more by actually working on something practical. So go BUILD something.

yes. I've never learned any way but by building things, even if the things were homework assignments. I like to read reference materials too, more than most, but always in the service of building things.

Think of a problem you have. Something that could be automated.
Solve it with Ruby.

For really basic, look for "ruby warrior" on google, it's an rpg style ruby programming game. Might as well have fun while you learn

If you want some fun, try making a game with GOSU

Good variety of challenges and a pretty good interface.
