Product Description

Review
'Games for Language Learning is an excellent aid to the teacher who wants to make language learning more meaningful and more fun.' Elizabeth Rowell, Journal of Reading

Product Description
Games provide meaningful and enjoyable language practice at all levels and for all age groups. They can be used to practise any of the skills - speaking, listening, reading and writing - at any stage of the learning process, from controlled repetition through guided practice to free expression. To enable teachers to select the activities most suitable for their needs, precise information is provided, both at the beginning of each game and in the summary chart, about the language content, the skills to be practised, the level, the degree of teacher-control, and the time and materials required. Clear advice is given on preparation and classroom procedure, with many illustrations and examples. There is a comprehensive index.

First Sentence
We believe that the general language which can be used to organise and to comment on games is as rich in its potential for learning as the specific language of any particular game. Read the first page

5.0 out of 5 stars Creative!, 27 Jul 2006
By Vanessa Jones "vanessatjones" (Frome, Somerset) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I trawled through so many language learning games books whilst training on the CELTA course and didn't come across this book until almost the end and it is by far the best book I have found. If you are going to invest in just one book to generate lesson ideas then I definately recommend this one. There are so many adaptable tasks and activities which are not the recycled run-of-the-mill mundane ones you usually find.

4.0 out of 5 stars Games for Language Learning, 9 Jul 2009
By NZJen (China) - See all my reviews
I haven't as yet used any of the games in this book, but having looked through it, there are plenty of really good ones with a lot of variety. The games are geared towards beginner to intermediate level students, but can be adapted for use with more advanced students. I'll be teaching at Summer School in China very soon and I hope to be able to start using some of these games then. I'm confident I'll find this book to be very useful.
