Games can be used to practise any of the four language skills – speaking, listening, reading and writing – at any stage of the learning process, from controlled repetition through guided practice to free expression. This completely revised edition of the ‘classic’ title Games for Language Learning has been restructured to enable busy teachers to navigate it with ease and select the activities most suitable for each of their classes. The games can be integrated easily into existing coursework. There is a section on solo games for independent learners and the games have been selected to cater for a variety of learning styles. The book includes chapters on: Icebreakers and warmers, Speaking, Listening, Writing, Reading, Vocabulary and spelling, Grammar, and Solo games. This book will be of interest to both experienced and new teachers looking for fresh ideas.
