We have provided simple directions for six kinds of games and a number of suggestions for specific games of each type. As a starting point, try some of the specific games have suggested and then once you get the hang of it, you will undoubtedly want to add games of your to your collection. You will need to invest in a supply of 3 x 5 index cards to make your games, but by following our suggestions they won't take long to make, and once made they can be used over and over. The games can be one of the most enjoyable supplementary activities you cna do with your class whether you use them once a week or once a day. In an intensive language program you can easily use one a day and the students will not tire of them because they provide a pleasant and relaxing break from the hard work of battling with stubborn language. Because the games are by nature a supplementary activity and a time-out from the rigors of formal teaching and learning, they are best used to review or practice words and sentences that have already been introduced. In a limited way however, the games can be used to introduce new bits and pieces of language -- especially vocabulary items and idioms. ...... These language games are useful in one other important way -- they remove you the teacher from the soptlight and allow the students to deal with each other and the cards in front of them. You are there, of course and serve as the impartial referee, but you can stay out of the way for a while and let the players play. Throughout the book we have graded our suggestions as being suitable for elementary, intermediate or advanced classes. Please accept these labels with important point is that the games can be enjoyed by students at all levels. After som experience you with develop a good sense for what your class can do and can't do. Have fun !!
