Abstract

"This collection of games can be used by those who teach a second language to adults and children outside in a camp setting or in a family living room. Apart from their usefulness in classrooms, these games are fun to play at both children's and adult parties. Many of these games are adapted from those played in childhood and in high school language classrooms. Still, others are adapted from "ice-breaker" activities that are used as part of various workshop presentations.

This book is in three sections: Beginners, Intermediate, Advanced / Fluent levels. A few of the games are repeated in Intermediate and Advanced Levels but are made a little more challenging. Fluent students are expected to be literate in a standardized spelling system."--Back cover.
